The mechanical characteristics analysis of the telescopic wing with adaptive driving mechanism
The deflection of the high aspect ratio telescopic wing is inevitable under aerodynamic force. It is of great significance to ensure that the internal mechanism can exercise smoothly in the deformation state.

Double Helix Structure for Stable Flexural Actuation in Soft Robotics
This work introduces a double‐helical architecture for soft robotic actuators that enhances twisting resistance, increases output force, and minimizes undesired deformation. Actuators driven by shape‐memory alloy wires exhibit a roughly fivefold higher torsional/flexural stiffness ratio and 50% greater force output.

Programmable Flocks: Hierarchical Swarm Control via Dynamic Parameter Injection
We present a method for the control of robot swarms which allows the shaping and the translation of patterns of simple robots (“smart particles”), using two types of devices. These two types represent a hierarchy: a larger group of simple, oblivious robots (which we call the workers) that is governed by simple local attraction forces and a smaller ...

Omnidirectional Shape Proprioception for Untethered Shape Memory Alloy‐Driven Soft Robotic Arms
A lightweight, modular soft robotic arm employs SMA actuation and a multi‐Hall‐magnet sensing system to achieve accurate omnidirectional shape proprioception. Each 35 g segment enables scalable assembly, while robust proprioception supports versatile navigation and manipulation in complex, unstructured environments.

To address the phase stability issue of α‐FAPbI3, we employed a cation doping strategy using 1‐decanesulfonate (C10H21NaO3S). This doping releases lattice strain and suppresses the formation of the δ‐phase, enabling breakthrough performance in perovskite solar cells with a power conversion efficiency of 26.67% and excellent thermal and photostability ...

Toward Fully Soft and Multifunctional Shape Sensing via Optical Waveguide Arrays
This work develops a sheet made with arrays of soft optical fibers that can reconstruct its 3D surface shape. Synergy of the waveguides’ responses to bending and pressing force allows shape reconstruction with resilience to damage. Applied onto surfaces of robotic or living systems, our design can be implemented in virtual reality, teleoperation ...
