Emergent Motility of Self‐Organized Particle‐Giant Unilamellar Vesicle Assembly

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Giant unilamellar vesicles (GUVs), when combined with silica particles under alternating electric fields, spontaneously self‐assemble into motile structures. Asymmetric particle decoration induces fluid flows that propel the assemblies, enabling persistent motion and reversible control.

Feature extraction of near-spherical fruit with partial occlusion for robotic harvesting [PDF]

Maejo International Journal of Science and Technology, 2010
For a fruit-picking robot in natural scenes, feature extraction of fruits occluded by leaves and branches based on machine vision is a key problem. In this study, the cluster barycentre (CB), edge barycentre (EB), circular Hough transform (CHT) and least

Directed Functionalization of Recombinant Spider Silk Nonwoven Membranes with Antibodies Using Non‐Canonical Amino Acids

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
A recombinant spider silk protein was functionalized by incorporating genetically encoded bio‐orthogonal reactive azido‐groups. The azido‐functionalized proteins were produced in a scalable biotechnological process, and particles, films, as well as nanofibers were established as anchorage for fully functional antibodies via site‐specific bio‐orthogonal
