Disrupted hand motor functions may be restored through exoskeleton-assisted rehabilitation training. However, the variability of soft tissue in human joints or across individuals and development of an exoskeleton that combines human machine motion compatibility and dynamic compliance pose persistent
Topology reasoning is crucial for autonomous driving. Current methods primarily focus on instance-level learning for centerline detection, followed by a sequential module for topology reasoning that relies on simplified MLP layers. Moreover, these approaches often neglect the importance of point-to-
Magnetic microrobots (MMs) have emerged as promising tools for targeted therapies, including non-invasive in vivo treatments and precise drug delivery, owing to their untethered controllability and biocompatibility. Current actuation strategies for MMs primarily rely on two magnetic field (MF) gener
To date, untethered micro/nanorobots have attracted considerable attention in various aspects due to their unique potential for in-vivo applications such as the targeted therapy. One of the most promising types of micro/nanorobots is the class of ferromagnetic microrobots which can be efficiently ac…
Sub-structures such as micro-structured magnetic teeth fabricated with an artificial bacteria flagellum (ABF) are designed for achieving more motion modes, higher precision, and better controllability. To achieve these, a more precise model considering the non-circular cross-sectional features is se…
Humanoid robots can imitate human behaviour and provide interactive services to humans due to their humanoid form, especially humanoid wheeled robots that can perform more complex tasks with the additional mobility. With the development of robotics technology, humanoid robots have been used increasi
To date, untethered microrobots have been receiving tremendous attention for playing implacable roles of maneuverable tools in fields such as microfabrication and biomanipulation. Typical actuation of such untethered tiny robots is the magnetic field-based approaches, including gradient and rotation…
Speech-driven lip sync has become a promising technique for generating and editing talking-head videos. These studies mainly use 3D morphable models or 2D facial landmarks as the intermediate face representations. However, 2D-based methods have been stagnant recently due to their inability to handle…
Atomic force microscopy (AFM) based nanorobotic technology provides a unique manner for delicate operations at the nanoscale in various ambient, thanks to its ultrahigh spatial resolution, outstanding environmental adaptability, and numerous measurement approaches. However, one vital challenge behin
Nanorobot has the potential to automate the manipulation and observation processes at molecular scale. Current drug discovery process is labor and cost intensive. Thus, a strong demand exists to automate this process. Here, we developed an Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM) based nanorobot for in situ se…
Atomic force microscopy (AFM) is a powerful measurement instrument, which has been widely implemented in various fields. To enhance the maneuverability, an AFM can be modified and its cantilever can be controlled as a robotic end-effector. To precisely control the nanorobots, their scanners inherent…
