Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.Sparse active‐infrared proximity sensing is coupled to an adaptive thigmotactic controller for camera‐inaccessible object retrieval. After grasping, receptor‐informed encoding transforms force, temperature, and wrist force–torque signals into spike trains for spiking neural network recognition.

TacVerse: A Multisensor Dataset and Benchmark for Cross‐Sensor Vision‐Based Tactile Perception
Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.TacVerse provides a controlled benchmark of 106 800 tactile images from seven vision‐based tactile sensors across shape classification, grating classification, and force regression. Direct cross‐sensor transfer reveals substantial sensor‐shift degradation, with grating and force perception more affected than shape recognition.

Dual‐Mode Gripper With Suction and Shape‐Adaptive Freezing Grasps
Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.This study presents a dual‐mode robotic gripper that combines vacuum suction with a shape‐adaptive freezing grasp. The freezing mode uses a compliant rubber membrane, a sprayed water layer, and dry‐ice powder to generate ice‐mediated adhesion while conforming to complex geometries.

The Mind From Within: Visceral Roots of Human Cognition
Advanced Science, EarlyView.The physiological activity of visceral organs, such as the heart, the lungs, and the gut, is surprisingly linked to many sophisticated mental operations, such as remembering the past, being aware of ourselves, making choices, and forging social bonds.

Ferroelectric Devices for In‐Memory and In‐Sensor Computing
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Inspired by biological systems, in‐memory and in‐sensor computing overcome von Neumann bottlenecks. Ferroelectric devices can mimic synaptic functions and sense stimuli like light or force, therefore are ideal for these paradigms. This review introduces the ferroelectric devices applied for in‐memory and in‐sensor computing, covering their structures ...
