Muscle Control of an Extra Robotic Digit

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
This study compares muscle‐ and movement‐based control for operating a supernumerary robotic thumb. While movement control performs better in the proposed tasks, muscle‐based (EMG) control promotes broader motor learning. The results highlight the promise and challenges of using biosignals for human augmentation, offering new insights into intuitive ...

Multi‐hop anonymous payment channel network based on onion routing

IET Blockchain
Payment channel networks (PCNs) are one of the most promising off‐chain solutions to the blockchain scalability problem. However, most current payment channel schemes suffer from overly ideal routing assumptions or fail to provide complete path privacy ...

Multimodal Human–Robot Interaction Using Human Pose Estimation and Local Large Language Models

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
A multimodal human–robot interaction framework integrates human pose estimation (HPE) and a large language model (LLM) for gesture‐ and voice‐based robot control. Speech‐to‐text (STT) enables voice command interpretation, while a safety‐aware arbitration mechanism prioritizes gesture input for rapid intervention.

LRG1 Drives Pathological Angiogenesis by Disrupting Neutrophil Mitochondrial Homeostasis in Bladder Cancer

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
In bladder cancer, LRG1 binds to ANXA2 to trigger mitochondrial ROS‐dependent NETosis. This pathogenic cascade actively uncouples endothelial‐mural cell interactions, driving profound vascular destabilization. Consequently, targeting the LRG1‐ANXA2 axis attenuates the neutrophil burden and induces structural vascular normalization, offering a powerful ...

Closing the Empirical Loop: Autonomous AI Agents Conduct End‐to‐end Research With Human Participants

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A multi‐agent AI system autonomously executes the complete scientific workflow, from hypothesis to manuscript, across three psychological studies involving 288 participants. The system designs experiments, collects real world data, develops analysis pipelines, and writes manuscripts with theoretical rigor comparable to experienced researchers.

Dynamic Interfacial pH Stabilization and (002) Oriented Deposition Enabled by Histidine‐Induced Solid Electrolyte Interphase for Highly Reversible Zn Anodes

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The histidine‐induced ultrathin SEI (Zn(OH)2‐HIS) delivers exceptional anode stability by stabilizing the interfacial pH via a synergistic mechanism of chemical buffering and physical blocking, while inducing dendrite‐free oriented (002) deposition.
