Solid Harmonic Wavelet Bispectrum for Image Analysis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The Solid Harmonic Wavelet Bispectrum (SHWB), a rotation‐ and translation‐invariant descriptor that captures higher‐order (phase) correlations in signals, is introduced. Combining wavelet scattering, bispectral analysis, and group theory, SHWB achieves interpretable, data‐efficient representations and demonstrates competitive performance across texture,

Feline‐Inspired Robot Enabled by Combustion‐Driven Actuators for Agile Motion and High‐Payload Obstacle Traversal

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Inspired by nature's competitive maneuvers, this study introduces a combustion‐driven soft actuator that powers a multi‐modal “Jump‐and‐Fly Catbot” (JFC). With millisecond response, high‐force output (over 70 times its weight) and precise control (error within 5%), the robot can jump, fly, hover, and escape from challenging environments, achieving ...

Gutmann Donor Theory‐Guided Design of Mononuclear Ionic Cluster for Exceptional N‐Type Thermoelectric Ionogel

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Super‐stretchable and self‐healing polyacrylate ternary ionogel elastomers are used for flexible i‐TE devices. Based on Gutmann donor theory of doped anion, the work proposes a three‐parameter tuning strategy of flexible polymer‐doped anion‐synergistic cation to achieve the systematic design of ionic thermoelectric materials. Abstract Quasi‐solid‐state,

A Robotic Urinary Bladder Enabling Volume Monitoring and Assisted Micturition

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
An implantable robotic bladder is presented that can store urine in an origami‐designed enclosure. An inductance sensing principle can monitor and transfer the urine volume in real‐time. It can actively expand based on the amount of urine collected from kidneys and apply on‐demand mechanical compression to assist urination.
