An Edible Chitosan‐Based Acoustic Sensor for Sound‐Responsive Actuation in Edible Robots

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This study introduces an edible acoustic sensor for robotic food and edible robotics. Built from a chitosan piezoelectric film between gold electrodes, the sensor enables acoustic communication through ON/OFF keying. Integrated into an edible robot with pneumatically actuated arms and neck, it responds to high‐frequency tones.

Photo‐Switchable Molecular Module Programming PET Biodegradation in Aquatic Environments

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
We address the plastic durability paradox by integrating an itaconic acid–derived pyrrolidone module into polymer backbones. Sunlight in water triggers Norrish Type I ring‐opening and hydrophilization, enabling rapid biodegradation into nontoxic minerals.

Establishing a Spectral Optical CDMA System Involving the Use of Two Mutually Orthogonal States of Polarizations Using 1-D Two-Distinct Codes With Two-Code Keying

IEEE Access
We propose 1-D Two-Distinct codes with two-code keying (TCK) using two mutually orthogonal states of polarization (SOP) in spectral components as a new code family for spectral amplitude coding (SAC) in optical code division multiple access (OCDMA ...
