Traditional approaches to sensing have often been aimed at simple sensor characteristics to make interpretation of the sensor outputs easier, but this has also limited the quality of the encoded sensory information. Integrating a complex sensor with deep learning could hence be a strategy for removing current limitations on the information […]
Soft machines typically exhibit slow locomotion speed and low manipulation strength because of intrinsic limitations of soft materials. Here, we present a generic design principle that harnesses mechanical instability for a variety of spine-inspired fast and strong soft machines. Unlike most current soft robots that are designed […]
In a new study published in Nano Letters, a team led by Prof. Yu Shuhong from the University of Science and Technology of China (USTC) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS) reported a bio-inspired lotus-fiber-mimetic spiral structure bacterial cellulose (BC) hydrogel fiber with high strength, high toughness, excellent biocompatibility, good […]
