Phase‐Change Alloys Enable Localized Reversible Stiffening and Actuation in Steerable Eversion Tip‐Growing Robots

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
This work presents a tip‐growing eversion robot that uses phase‐changing alloys for reversible stiffening and localized actuation, achieving 43× stiffness modulation, 15× force amplification, and segmental steering. The system enables precise navigation and force delivery in constrained, tortuous pathways.

A Multimodal Laser‐Induced Graphene‐Based Flexible Sensor for Soft Robotic Hand Environmental Perception

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
A multimodal laser‐induced graphene (LIG)‐based flexible sensor is developed to detect proximity and contact signals. Integrated into a soft robotic hand, it enables vision‐free object searching and grasping. Combined with a convolutional neural network, the system achieves accurate material and texture recognition, enhancing the capability of ...

A Female‐Locust‐Inspired Hybrid Soft‐Stiff Robotic Digger: Mimetics and Implications for Digging Efficiency

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
Female desert locusts dig underground to lay their eggs. They displace soil, rather than removing it, to create a tunnel. We analyze burrowing dynamics and 3D kinematics and design a locust‐inspired hybrid soft–stiff robot that reproduces this mechanism. The results show the natural strategy minimizes energy, whereas alternative patterns raise costs up
