Gear‐Switch‐Integrated Dual‐Mode Three‐Wheeled Exoskeleton that Empowers Cyborg Insects with Enhanced Open‐Loop Locomotion Control Precision and Load Capacity

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
Cyborg insects’ low open‐loop control precision and limited sensor payload hinder applications. This article introduces an exoskeleton that improves motion precision and payload capacity. With a 7.2 cm × 14 cm size, it enhances load capacity to over 400 g and enables high‐precision movement without feedback control, expanding application scenarios for ...

A Wearable Soft Actuator for Directional Tactile Stimulation: Design and Testing

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
A wearable actuator able to produce directional tactile stimulation is obtained by embedding a planar shape memory spring in silicone matrix. The matrix is designed taking into account skin characteristics and leveraging its multifunctionality: it acts as a bias load, improves the thermal behavior of the spring and wearability.

Masseter Muscle Activity in Track and Field Athletes: A Pilot Study [PDF]

The Open Dentistry Journal, 2016
Teeth clenching has been shown to improve remote muscle activity (by augmentation of the Hoffmann reflex), and joint fixation (by decreased reciprocal inhibition) in the entire body. Clenching could help maintain balance, improve systemic function, and enhance safety.
