The Evolution of Autonomous Systems for Planetary Cave Exploration: A Review

open access: yesJournal of Field Robotics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The exploration of Subsurface Access Points (SAPs), such as lava tubes on the Moon and Mars, has gained significant interest due to their potential as stable environments shielded from surface radiation and temperature extremes. These sites are considered high‐value targets for detecting water and signs of ancient life, and assessing their ...

From Flybys to Sample Return: A Review of Space Probes and Robotic Sampling Technologies for Small Bodies

open access: yesJournal of Field Robotics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT As a crucial puzzle piece of deep space exploration, exploring small bodies can provide significant scientific insights and valuable mineral resources. Unlike missions to the Moon and Mars, small‐body missions pose distinct technical challenges, including communication delays, weak gravity, and uncertain environments. This paper reviews a full

Linear System Identification and Control of a Low‐Cost High‐Performance Omnidirectional Marine Surface Vehicle for Swarming Applications

open access: yesJournal of Field Robotics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Marine operations traditionally rely on human intervention, a costly and disruptive method. Autonomous surface vehicles (ASVs) offer a powerful alternative, capable of operating autonomously, for extended periods, and with various sensors for various missions.

Dumpsite Seabed Characterization of the San Pedro Basin, CA, From Autonomous Vehicle Observations

open access: yesJournal of Field Robotics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT A wide‐area seabed survey was conducted using autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs) in a known dumpsite off the coast of Southern California that has been found to have widespread sediment contamination from the chemical dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane (DDT).

Fully Compensated Ferrimagnetic Properties of (Cr,Fe)S Compound with a Pyrrhotite‐Type Structure

open access: yesSmall, EarlyView.
Pyrrhotite‐type crystal structure of (Cr,Fe)S compound. The fabrication conditions for obtaining a single phase of the non‐equilibrium phase were optimized. The temperature dependence of the magnetization exhibits the typical behavior of compensated ferrimagnetism. A large magnetic coercivity of the (Cr,Fe)S compound.

Self‐Driven Hybrid Piezomagnetic–Iontronic Mechanoreceptors for Bimodal SA/RA Perception and Tactile Synthesis

open access: yesSmall, EarlyView.
A bimodal mechanoreceptor, integrating a piezomagnetic elastomer and an ion gel, simultaneously and independently transduces external mechanical stimuli into independent slow‐adapting signals for static pressure and rapid‐adapting signals for dynamic vibration.
