Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.This review identifies key design considerations for insect‐inspired microrobots capable of multimodal locomotion. To draw inspiration, biological and robotic strategies for moving in air, on water surfaces, and underwater are examined, along with approaches for crossing the air–water interface.

Tumbling Magnetic Microrobots for Targeted In Vivo Drug Delivery in the GI Tract
Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.We introduce a microrobot design and integrated system for on‐demand targeted drug release in the gastrointestinal tract. The microrobot has an embedded magnet for actuation with external magnetic fields and is visualized in real time using ultrasound. It has two drug release ports sealed with a thermally sensitive wax. Local heating of the wax using a

Spatial distribution of heavy metals in the topsoil on roundabouts in Zielona Góra, Poland
Environmental Protection and Natural Resources, 2015 In most cases, traffic pollution deposition is linear with regularities in its distribution in transect routes (canyon-type effect). The aim of this study is to identify different characteristics of heavy metal deposition on large roundabouts, which are ...

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.Pak Biawak, a necrobot, embodies an unusual fusion of biology and robotics. Designed to repurpose natural structures after death, it challenges conventional boundaries between nature and engineering. Its movements are precise yet unsettling, raising questions about sustainability, ethics, and the untapped potential of biointegrated machines.

Real‐Time Ferroelectric Domain Wall Dynamics During Electric Poling and Depoling
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Real‐time visualization of domain wall dynamics during alternating‐current poling, direct‐current poling, and electrical depoling in relaxor‐PT ferroelectric single crystals reveals distinct field‐dependent pathways and strong path dependence. Instant polarized light microscopy uncovers reversible domain wall nucleation, motion, and reconfiguration ...
