Massively Degenerate Coherent Perfect Absorption in Gradient‐Index Fibers
A coherent perfect absorber (CPA) normally operates for only one or very few spatial modes. The CPA proposed here uses a gradient‐index (GRIN) fiber to absorb hundreds of spatial modes at once, its self‐imaging property replacing the bulky free‐space degenerate cavity of earlier designs. An analytic criterion sets how much modal degeneracy is required,

Spherical liquid crystal polymer microlasers with a bipolar configuration confine lasing to a single equatorial plane, allowing precise control over where the laser emission is generated. The anisotropic refractive index profile additionally lifts the energy degeneracy of azimuthal whispering gallery modes, which causes a characteristic splitting into ...

A soft robotic simulator is developed to replicate the digital removal of feces (DRF), a sensitive yet essential nursing procedure. Integrating soft actuators, sensors, and a realistic rectal model, the simulator balances functional fidelity with perceptual realism. Engineering evaluations and nurse feedback confirm its potential to enhance training in

Grounding Large Language Models for Robot Task Planning Using Closed‐Loop State Feedback
BrainBody‐Large Language Model (LLM) introduces a hierarchical, feedback‐driven planning framework where two LLMs coordinate high‐level reasoning and low‐level control for robotic tasks. By grounding decisions in real‐time state feedback, it reduces hallucinations and improves task reliability.
