3D‐Printable Nanoporous Thermosets via Disulfide‐Based Polymerization‐Induced Microphase Separation
α‐Lipoic acid‐derived degradable macro‐chain transfer agents (macroCTAs) with tunable hydrophilicity drive polymerization‐induced microphase separation (PIMS) in photocurable resins. Selective etching via disulfide cleavage then generates interconnected nanoporous thermosets, and compatibility with liquid‐crystal display (LCD) 3D printing enables the ...

Diatom‐Inspired 1D Immobile Robots Capable of 2D Collective Mobility
This study presents a diatom‐inspired robotic system that explores group coordination through limited physical interactions. The researchers tune groups of Barbots, simple robotic agents that possess neither individual mobility nor explicit communication capabilities, to achieve complex and adaptive collaboration based on environmental light.

Concentric Rheostat Decoupled 3D Force‐Sensing Module for Smart Table Tennis Training
A 3D‐printed sensor array intrinsically decouples normal and shear forces through a unique concentric structural design. By integrating piezoresistive, sliding area‐varying capacitive, and concentric rheostat mechanisms, the 12‐sensor module achieves high‐resolution 3D force mapping without complex algorithms.

This work presents a magnetic bronchoscopy robot with a novel multi‐segment variable stiffness catheter. This catheter can not only move flexibly in the narrow bronchi but also harden according to the need to provide support. Combined with remote wireless magnetic field drive, it provides a more precise and effective solution for biopsy of deep lung ...
