From Rigid to Soft Robotic Approaches for Neuroendoscopy
Robotic assistance has had minimal impact on deep intraventricular surgeries, where small‐scale, precision, and reduced invasiveness can contribute to improved patient outcomes. Emerging technologies in rigid, soft, and hybrid robotics are reviewed to identify the most promising mechanisms for deep brain navigation in addition to an attempt to identify

NPR-NLMMI hybrid mode-locked fiber laser with an SMF-PCF-GIMF-SMF saturable absorber [PDF]
This study demonstrates a hybrid mode-locked fiber laser by incorporating a single-mode fiber-photonic crystal fiber-graded-index multimode fiber-single-mode fiber (SMF-PCF-GIMF-SMF) structure as a saturable absorber (SA) into a nonlinear polarization ...

Homodyne OFDM using simple optical carrier recovery [PDF]
We demonstrate a novel optical injection locking approach to carrier recovery in RF-pilot aided OFDM. Any need for optical pre-filtering is eliminated and only very narrow guard bands are required.

A Soft Robotic Fish With a Dielectric Elastomer Actuator Body and Negative Stiffness Spine
This work introduces a bio‐mimetic soft robotic fish driven by fiber‐reinforced dielectric elastomer actuators integrated as its body. By prestretching this active skin against a flexible spine, a negative stiffness system is created, enabling large‐amplitude bending.

A Low‐Cost, Handheld Optical Stiffness Sensor for Minimally Invasive Surgery
A novel handheld stiffness sensor is presented for real‐time tissue stiffness characterization. By simultaneously sensing contact force and tissue deformation, the device enables accurate stiffness quantification without requiring precise manual control. This approach offers a promising solution for intraoperative tumor detection and minimally invasive
