Bio-inspired soft robots have gained significant attention for their flexible design and adaptability to various environments, making them suitable for exploration and task execution in confined or hazardous areas. However, the deformation and motion of soft magnetic robots rely on both their struct
Manipulating deformable objects is a ubiquitous task in household environments, demanding adequate representation and accurate dynamics prediction due to the objects’ infinite degrees of freedom. This work proposes DeformNet, which utilizes latent space modeling with a learned 3D representation mode…
Surface vibration tactile feedback is capable of conveying various semantic information to humans via handheld electronic devices, such as smartphones, touch panels, and game controllers. However, covering the entire contacting surface of the device with a dense arrangement of actuators can affect i…
Cutaneous haptics is helpful to tame the human-machine mismatch by interactive tactile feedback and perform precise manipulations for virtual immersive interactions. However, wearable tactile gloves cover the palm and fingers greatly, thus reducing the tactile information from interactive objects an
Magnetic actuation system manipulates micro soft or rigid robots by a controllable magnetic field to move them freely in the narrow or enclosed space, which has demonstrated its huge potential in medical interventional surgery and drug delivery. However, the limited working space of paired or area-c
