Temperature Correction in a Single Luminophore Pressure‐Sensitive Paint Using a Dual‐Emitting Gold Acridine Complex

Advanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.
The use of pressure‐sensitive luminescent molecules to quantify surface pressure in wind tunnel testing has revolutionized experimental aerodynamics. This work develops a dual‐emitting gold acridine complex for the simultaneous sensing of pressure and temperature independently of each other.

Collision‐Resilient Winged Drones Enabled by Tensegrity Structures

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Based on structures of birds such as the woodpeck, this article presents the collision‐resilient aerial robot, SWIFT. SWIFT leverages tensegrity structures in the fuselage and wings which allow it to undergo large deformations in a crash, without sustaining damage. Experiments show that SWIFT can reduce impact forces by 70% over conventional structures.

Continual Learning for Multimodal Data Fusion of a Soft Gripper

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Models trained on a single data modality often struggle to generalize when exposed to a different modality. This work introduces a continual learning algorithm capable of incrementally learning different data modalities by leveraging both class‐incremental and domain‐incremental learning scenarios in an artificial environment where labeled data is ...
