SSTNet: Saliency sparse transformers network with tokenized dilation for salient object detection

IET Image Processing, 2023
The vision Transformer structure performs better in salient object detection than the convolutional neural network (CNN)‐based approach. Vision Transformer predicts saliency by modelling long‐range dependencies from sequence to sequence with convolution ...

Compliant Pneumatic Feet with Real‐Time Stiffness Adaptation for Humanoid Locomotion

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
A compliant pneumatic foot with real‐time variable stiffness enables humanoid robots to adapt to changing terrains. Using onboard vision and pressure control, the foot modulates stiffness within each gait cycle, reducing impact forces and improving balance. The design, cast in soft silicone with embedded air chambers and Kevlar wrapping, offers durable,

Mutual Adaptation and Influence: Review of Latent Dynamics Models in Human–Robot Interaction

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Robots are becoming better teammates by learning hidden patterns in how people act. This review covers how state‐of‐the‐art approaches leverage these patterns to help robots not only react but also anticipate and guide cooperation. Here, we synthesize a unifying framework for these approaches, classify and review existing works, and highlight key ...

Distributed Micropneumatic Sensors for Soft Robots to Detect Touch and Pose

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Soft robots need integrated touch and pose sensing for safe and reliable operation. This work presents a three‐fingered soft gripper with 18 micropneumatic sensors made from the same materials as its pneumatic actuators. By measuring airflow resistance changes in deforming microchannels of the sensors, finger pose and contact are detected, enabling ...

RGB-D Salient Object Detection Based on Cross-Modal and Cross-Level Feature Fusion

IEEE Access
Existing RGB-D saliency detection models have not fully considered the differences between features at various levels, and lack an effective mechanism for cross-level feature fusion.
