Wearable Metamaterials with Embodied Intelligence for Programmable Control of Human Limbs Tremor
Resulting from alternating muscle contractions, tremors can severely limit human ability to perform everyday tasks like walking or talking, due to their disruptive nature. Medication and surgery may not always effectively address tremor control. A wearable device embodying programmable smart metamaterials with adaptable intelligence to meet the demand ...

Crater Observing Bioinspired Rolling Articulator (COBRA)
Crater Observing Bio‐inspired Rolling Articulator (COBRA) is a modular, snake‐inspired robot that addresses the mobility challenges of extraterrestrial exploration sites such as Shackleton Crater. Incorporating snake‐like gaits and tumbling locomotion, COBRA navigates both uneven surfaces and steep crater walls.

Insect‐scale crawling robots can traverse confined environments; nevertheless, their functionalities are predominantly restricted to sensing because of challenges in integrating actuated degrees of freedom. Herein, a miniature rotary electrostatic clutch is presented by incorporating cutting patterns in the clutch layer.
