A Programmable Braided Silk‐Glass Fiber Ligament Promoting Rapid Motoric Recovery

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A scalable three‐dimensional braiding strategy integrates silk and glass fibers into customizable artificial ligaments with programmable “J‐shaped” nonlinear mechanics. The silk‐rich architecture supports osseoligamentous integration, while glass fibers provide mechanical reinforcement and biomimetic mineralization cues, enabling strain‐adaptive load ...

Co‐Design Insights for Mechanically Active Flexible Printed Circuit Boards Through the CurveQuad Origami Robot

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This paper presents the process of integrating electronics directly into the body sheet of CurveQuad, a small origami robot that can self‐fold, crawl, and steer with a single actuator. The authors design a flexible printed circuit board for the body sheet: the key challenge is to navigate how embedding electronics affects the mechanical properties and ...

A Two‐Stage Characterization Pipeline and Open‐Source Framework for Reproducible Tactile Sensing

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
The same soft tactile sensor returns different numbers when embodied in different robots. This is an Embodiment Gap that no shared framework currently captures transparently. A two‐stage characterization pipeline, paired with a FAIR open‐source digital datasheet, decouples intrinsic sensor behavior from embodiment effects and condenses cross‐laboratory

Design, Analysis, Simulation and Experimentation of a Flexible Spine Quadruped

, 2018
Quadrupeds robots can move on uneven and rough terrain where mobile robots cannot venture. Al-though bipeds have more capabilities, they are inherently unstable and difficult to control. Most quadrupeds today are built with a rigid spine.
