A Cable‐Driven Parallel Wire Robot for Probe Positioning and Tissue Palpation on Curved Phantoms

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
A wearable cable‐driven parallel robot is introduced for autonomous ultrasound probe positioning and soft tissue palpation on curved surfaces. By combining visual feedback with tension‐optimized control, the system achieves millimeter‐scale positioning accuracy while enforcing safety force constraints.

A Hybrid Magnetic Actuation System for Single‐Input Multistates Stabilization: Application to pH‐Responsive Drug Delivery

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
This study presents an integrated proof‐of‐concept robotic platform for targeted delivery applications. A hybrid magnetic actuation system achieves single‐input (z) multistate stabilization (x, y, ϕ, and θ) for precise capsule transport with submillimeter positioning accuracy.

Development of an Inchworm‐Like Dual‐Balloon‐Assisted Colonoscopic Robot Based on a Two‐Segment Extensible Continuum Section

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
This work presents an inchworm‐like dual‐balloon‐assisted colonoscopic robot (IDCR) based on a rod‐driven two‐segment continuum section. The IDCR enables the active straightening of the sigmoid colon through an inchworm‐like locomotion strategy, thereby avoiding loop formation.

Towards Human‐Centered Intelligent Inhabitable Spaces: A Review

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
This review introduces Robot‐Rooms as a new category of architectural‐scale robots that do not operate within a space but actively form and reconfigure the space around their occupants. Drawing from robotics, HCI, architecture, and the arts, an interdisciplinary framework is proposed that maps the enabling technologies and integration challenges ...

Reinforcement Learning With a Low‐Cost Parallel Linkage Gripper for Static and Dynamic Planar In‐Hand Manipulation

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
Hardware‐learning co‐design combines volar‐plate‐inspired passive‐joint constraints with mechanism‐aware reinforcement learning for a low‐cost parallel‐linkage gripper. The resulting system performs quasi‐static object adjustment and dynamic pinch grasping, demonstrating reliable planar in‐hand manipulation and successful sim‐to‐real transfer. Parallel
