A fully open-source platform provides a compact rheometer that can be easily combined with optical microscopy, allowing ...
The newest generation of microrobots is so small that a single unit can perch on the ridge of a fingerprint and practically ...
Micro-jumping robots offer unique advantages in scenarios such as confined space exploration and post-disaster search and rescue. However, ...
Soft robotic systems are evolving toward life-like motion, but precise shape-morphing and adaptive grasping remain difficult. This study presents a ...
The MLX90296 contactless linear sensor combines digital flexibility, ultra low power consumption, adaptable polarity modes, and a space-saving form factor. Melexis has announced the MLX90296, a new ...
Abstract: Non-linear laser-matter interaction offers the possibility to structure transparent material in three dimensions. Here, we demonstrate that such process can be implemented for fabricating ...
It’s not very common that a robot the size of a paper clip is able to do ten flips in eleven seconds and keep on course within five centimeters, says Markus Waibel of Waibel Robotics in Zurich. But ...
Abstract: This paper presents the conceptual design of a new actuator composed of a solenoid, a permanent magnet, and an elastic spring for tactile display. In this actuator, the feedback force is ...
