Female desert locusts dig underground to lay their eggs. They displace soil, rather than removing it, to create a tunnel. We analyze burrowing dynamics and 3D kinematics and design a locust‐inspired hybrid soft–stiff robot that reproduces this mechanism. The results show the natural strategy minimizes energy, whereas alternative patterns raise costs up

Rewiring Droplet Interface Synapses
Droplet interface synapses are used to create a neuromorphic network. Voltage pulses draw the droplets into contact and enable rewiring of the network through electrowetting. Results show that the heterogeneous droplet compositions and pore‐forming molecules may be used to tune the neuromorphic properties of the device using trapped charge as a form of

Collaborative Multiagent Closed‐Loop Motion Planning for Multimanipulator Systems
This work presents a hierarchical multi‐manipulator planner, emphasizing highly overlapping space. The proposed method leverages an enhanced Dynamic Movement Primitive based planner along with an improvised Multi‐Agent Reinforcement Learning approach to ensure regulatory and mediatory control while ensuring low‐level autonomy. Experiments across varied

Bio‐to‐Robot Transfer of Fish Sensorimotor Dynamics via Interpretable Model
This study demonstrates how a biologically interpretable model trained on real‐fish muscle activity can accurately predict the motion of a robotic fish. By linking real‐fish sensorimotor dynamics with robotic fish, the work offers a transparent, data‐efficient framework for transferring biological intelligence to bioinspired robotic systems.
