Miniaturized Magnetic Tip Design for Endoluminal Vine Robot Navigation
Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.A magnetic tip mount is designed for a miniaturized 7 mm soft‐growing vine robot to enable wireless magnetic steering and onboard imaging, while preserving a 3 mm working channel. The internal–external ring magnets design balances magnetic attachment with low eversion pressure. Experiments demonstrate ±90° steering, 34 mm bending radius, and successful

From Folding Mechanics to Robotic Function: A Unified Modeling Framework for Compliant Origami
Advanced Science, EarlyView.A geometry‐consistent DDG framework captures compliant origami deformation from rigid‐like folding to soft panel bending. By tuning crease and panel stiffness, bistable snap‐through responses transform into smooth monostable deformation, enabling programmable stability and robot‐scale locomotion.
