However, the field of soft robotics is still young, and designing them often involves mimicking natural organisms or relying heavily on human experts’ creativity. A formal automated design process is required. The use of neuroevolution-based algorithms to automatically design initial sketches of soft actuators that can enable the movement of future medical devices, such as drug-delivering catheters, is proposed. The actuator morphologies discovered by algorithms like Age-Fitness Pareto Optimisation, NeuroEvolution of Augmenting Topologies (NEAT), and Hypercube-based NEAT (HyperNEAT) were compared based on the maximum displacement reached and their robustness against various control methods. Analysing the results granted the insight that neuroevolution-based algorithms produce better-performing and more robust actuators under diverse control methods.

Robotic measurement technology plays a crucial role in facilitating rapid quality inspections during the manufacturing process due to its inherent flexibility.

To address these challenges, this work proposes a point cloud registration network for robotic scanning systems and introduces a DBR-Net (Dual-line Registration Network) to overcome the issues of low overlap rates and perspective occlusion that currently impede the registration of certain workpieces. First, feature extraction is performed using a bilinear encoder and multi-level feature interactions of both point-wise and global features. Subsequently, the features are sampled through unanimous voting and fed into the RANSAC (Random Sample Consensus) algorithm for pose estimation, enabling multi-view point cloud registration. Experimental results demonstrate that this method significantly outperforms many existing techniques in terms of feature extraction and registration accuracy, thereby enhancing the overall performance of point cloud registration.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":100184,"journal":{"name":"Biomimetic Intelligence and Robotics","volume":"5 2","pages":"Article 100195"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-11-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143160558","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We then implement the force-position coordinate optimization by incorporating the contact parameters and interaction force constraints into a gradient-based optimization MPC. Experimental validations were designed for two contact modes: “single-point contact” and “continuous contact”, involving materials with four different Young’s moduli and tested in human arm “relaxation–contraction” task. Results indicate that our framework ensures consistent geometry-aware parameter estimation and maintains reliable force interaction to guarantee safety.

The manipulator is fabricated from a superelastic Nitinol tube with bilaterally cut rectangular notches and is actuated by a stay cable. By applying the comprehensive elliptic integral solution (CEIS) for large deformation beams, the bending angle of each elastic beam is obtained, and the kinematics from the driving space to the joint space is formed. According to the bending angle of each elastic beam, the expression of the manipulator in Cartesian space can be obtained by geometric analysis. The kinematics from the joint space to the Cartesian space is established. The outer diameter of the manipulator is only 3.5 mm, and the inner diameter can reach 2 mm, allowing instruments to pass through. The maximum error of the manipulator movement is less than 5%. The load capacity of the manipulator has been verified through the stiffness experiments, and the maximum load of the manipulator can reach 400 g.
