Flexible 3D Multi‐Material Printing beyond Layer‐by‐Layer Constraints via Sequential Multi‐Printer Fabrication

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
We developed a flexible multi‐material printing strategy that employs sequential printing with different printers. This combined use of printers expands the accessible material scope. Moreover, incorporating Xolography as a sequential step enables support‐free, contactless printing, thereby enhancing structural design flexibility beyond conventional ...

Representing an Object by Interchanging What with Where [PDF]

, 2008
Exploring representations is a fundamental step towards understanding vision. The visual system carries two types of information along separate pathways: One is about what it is and the other is about where it is.

Dense 3D Face Correspondence

, 2018
We present an algorithm that automatically establishes dense correspondences between a large number of 3D faces. Starting from automatically detected sparse correspondences on the outer boundary of 3D faces, the algorithm triangulates existing ...

Multiobjective Codesign Optimization of a Planar Pneumatic Artificial Muscle‐Based Snake‐Like Robot for Enhanced Agility and Energy Efficiency

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
A codesign multiobjective optimization framework was developed to enhance the morphology and controller of a snake‐like robot driven by artificial muscles. It improved planar locomotion, agility, and power efficiency. The approach optimized link geometry and controller gains, revealing that shorter muscles near joints and longer linkages maximize ...

Volume Preserving Neural Shape Morphing

Computer Graphics Forum
AbstractShape interpolation is a long standing challenge of geometry processing. As it is ill‐posed, shape interpolation methods always work under some hypothesis such as semantic part matching or least displacement. Among such constraints, volume preservation is one of the traditional animation principles.
