Intelligent Sky Guardians (InSkyGuard): An Aerial Robotic Swarm for Autonomous Detection and Entrapment of Rogue Multirotors

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Intelligent Sky Guardians (InSkyGuard) is introduced as a four‐drone swarm that autonomously detects, tracks, and safely captures rogue drones using a coordinated net system. Computer vision and leader–follower control architecture enable synchronized enclosure, while integrated failsafes enhance system reliability. Validated through closed‐environment

Push the Limits: Human‐Like Multimodal Extreme Embodied Intelligence for Autonomous Racing

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Autonomous racing tests embodied intelligence under extreme control limits of speed, actuation, and decision‐making. Inspired by human multimodality, we present Apex, an embodied agent deployed on a super‐formula racing car at Yas Marina. Integrating physics‐informed perception, multimodal learning, and tasking, Apex cuts lap times by 15% and achieves ...

Autonomous Navigation of Pollen‐Inspired Magnetic Microrobots for Biomedical Applications

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
A sunflower pollen‐inspired magnetic microrobot enables controlled rolling navigation in vessel‐like environments. Its open geometry reduces hydrodynamic drag, while vision‐based closed‐loop control, shortest‐path planning, and reinforcement learning support target‐reaching and maze navigation with microrobot‐scale accuracy, highlighting a route toward

When Mechanics Rewrites Chemistry: Divergent Pathways of Hardening and Softening in High Strength Al-Alloys. [PDF]

Adv Sci (Weinh)
Mechanics reshapes chemistry: plastic flow actively governs two divergent, atomic‐scale mechanochemical pathways that tailor strain localization and ductility in high‐strength 7xxx Al alloys. Rather than relying on static structures, deformation dynamically reinforces the solution‐treated state via clustering, yet destabilizes the peak‐aged condition ...
