It is a fact that slippage causes tracking errors in both longitudinal and lateral directions which results to have less travel distance in tracking a reference trajectory. Less travel distance means having energy loss of the battery and carrying loads less than planned.

Wirelessly Powered Soft Magnetic Robot with Microneedle for Electrical Stimulation and Drug Delivery
A wirelessly powered soft magnetic robot integrates microneedles to enable dual functions: electrical stimulation (86.7% efficiency at 6 cm, tunable 0–20 V voltage, 0.4–50 ms pulses) and drug delivery. It switches surfaces via magnetic fields for gastrointestinal tract locomotion and treatment, with in vitro validation in fresh pig gut showing ...

Riemannian Geometry for the Classification of Brain States with Intracortical Brain Recordings
Geometric machine learning is applied to decode brain states from invasive intracortical neural recordings, extending Riemannian methods to the invasive regime where data is scarcer and less stationary. A Minimum Distance to Mean classifier on covariance manifolds uses geodesic distances to outperform convolutional neural networks while reducing ...
