Forecasting human joint angle has attracted considerable attention in the field of exoskeletons and prostheses, as one promising solution for human intention understanding. Multi-modal information fusion approaches have been employed to achieve terrain adaptability, among which vision encompassing t
Although the biologically flexible flippers of the cormorant (Phalacrocorax) are believed to be one of the most important features to achieve optimal swimming performance before take off, studies on a deformable bionic flipper with a non-uniformly distributed stiffness are rare. In this letter, to g
Lower-limb exoskeletons are of great interest in the robotics community because of their various applications in enhancement and rehabilitation. In this paper we present an autonomous exoskeleton platform for ankle plantarflexion assistance. The untethered exoskeleton has a high efficiency transmiss…
Aquatic-aerial multimodal vehicle is a new concept aircraft that can freely shuttle between water and air. Some of the natural organisms provide the inspiration to realize this multi-locomotion. Most of current prototypes use rigid link mechanisms or hinges to morph the structure thus to adapt to th…
