Different sensor architectures demand distinct elastomer properties, such as optical transparency and mechanical hardness. Conventional forward design approaches, however, rely on iterative trial-and-error processes from material preparation to final performance, making them inefficient and difficult to scale. Here, we present i-Tac, an inverse design pipeline for tailoring the optical and mechanical properties of elastomers used in VBTSs. Inspired by the composite structure of the human dermis, i-Tac leverages multi-material additive manufacturing with three distinct PolyJet 3D printing resins. A mixture design methodology is first employed to characterise printed elastomers, generating response surface models (ReSMs) that map material composition to functional properties. Based on user-specified target requirements, a desirability function is then applied for multi-objective optimisation, yielding an optimal operating window of compositions. This enables the fabrication of elastomers with desired properties in a single iteration through monolithic manufacturing. Experimental validation confirms the effectiveness of i-Tac for elastomer customisation and demonstrates its potential for the complete fabrication of VBTSs with tailored performance.</p>","PeriodicalId":93858,"journal":{"name":"Advanced intelligent systems (Weinheim an der Bergstrasse, Germany)","volume":"8 8","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":6.1,"publicationDate":"2026-08-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1002/aisy.202501200","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148719339","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}

Since this method gets rid of the signal domain conversion, analog CIM is suitable for the post-sensing processing systems. However, two critical challenges emerge: a lack of area-efficient analog buffers to complete the analog computing flow and the inevitable accumulation of noise throughout the continuous signal path. Previous works either incur extra power and space costs to mitigate these issues or compromise the analog CIM concept by introducing digital circuits. In this article, we borrow the concepts of episodic memory in human brains to experimentally implement a memristor-based neuromorphic denoising process. We experimentally demonstrate a homogeneous memristor processing unit for both temporal storage and neural network computation, imitating the synapses in the human brain. Furthermore, based on previous research on functional modeling of episodic memory, we experimentally demonstrate an analog neuromorphic denoising system utilizing the proposed homogeneous memristor cores.

Three TPU grades (80A, 85A, and 95A Shore hardness) are evaluated to optimize actuation performance.

Finite element simulations of the soft robotic fish show good agreement with experimental bending behavior for all tested materials.

This system adeptly transforms conventional H&amp;E-stained images into multiple histochemical visualizations, marking a significant advancement in diagnostic histopathology. To validate Xstainer's efficacy, we conducted an evaluation study involving experienced nephropathologists. Using the OmniST dataset—a carefully curated collection of 1,646 whole slide images representing diverse patient samples, including renal transplant samples, liver explants, nonmalignant renal disease, and Helicobacter pylori gastritis and paired with standard stains such as Masson's trichrome, Periodic Acid-Schiff, Jones methenamine silver, and Toluidine blue—our tool underwent intensive clinical evaluation. Our virtually stained slides enabled board-certified, experienced nephropathologists (&gt;10) to achieve diagnostic accuracy on par with, if not superior to, traditional staining techniques. Xstainer consistently outperformed various assessment benchmarks, including patch-level visual Turing test, slide-level staining quality assessment, and showed favorable performance in the Fréchet inception distance comparison, further underscoring its transformative potential.
