However, the effective control of insects is limited to minutes since the response from insects is reduced as the number of stimulus signal increase. This phenomenon is known as habituation, which causes the loss of control of robots and hinders their application in practical tasks such as search and rescue missions that require several hours. It has been shown that constantly switching the pattern of stimulus signals can slow down the onset of habituation. Moreover, when habituation occurs, applying a different stimulus signal can break the habituation. Based on this, we have designed a navigation algorithm that can extend the control time of insects to several hours. The algorithm is composed of a stimulation decision-making core responsible for deciding on the type of stimulus signal (left, right, acceleration), a stimulation parameters adjustment (SPA) core responsible for adjusting the stimulus signal voltage constantly to delay the occurrence of habituation, and a reactivation function (RF), as a different stimulus signal from the normal stimulus signal, is used to break insects' habituation to the normal stimulus signal. Experiments have shown that our SPA regulator and RF can significantly extend the control time of insects. Navigation experiments demonstrating effective control of the insects for up to 3 h verified the effectiveness of the navigation algorithm, which strikes a balance between control accuracy and control time.</p>","PeriodicalId":94210,"journal":{"name":"Soft robotics","volume":" ","pages":"473-483"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139059397","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Plant tendrils evolve an extraordinary and stable spiral morphology in the free-growing stage. By combining apical and asymmetrical growth strategies, the tendrils can adjust their morphology to wrap around and grab different supports. This phenomenon of changing tendril morphology through the movement of growth inspires a thoughtful consideration of the laws of growth that underlie it. In this study, tendril growth is modeled based on the Kirchhoff rod theory to obtain the exact morphological equations. Based on this, the movement patterns of the tendrils are investigated under different growth strategies. It is shown that the self-interference phenomenon appears as the tendril grows, allowing it to hold onto its support more firmly. In addition, a finite element model is constructed using continuum media mechanics and following the finite growth theory to simulate tendril growth. The growth morphology and self-interference phenomenon of tendrils are observed visually. Furthermore, an innovative class of fluid elastic actuators is designed to verify the growth phenomena of tendrils, which can realize the wrapping and locking functions. Several experiments are conducted to measure the end output force and the smallest size that can be clamped, and the output efficiency of the elastic actuator and the optimal working pressure are verified.

Ferrofluidic robots are multifunctional and scalable, exhibit fluid properties, and can be controlled remotely; thus, they are particularly advantageous for such medical tasks. Previously, ferrofluidic robot control has been achieved via the manipulation of handheld permanent magnets or in current-controlled electromagnetic fields resulting in two-dimensional position and shape control and three-dimensional (3D) coupled position-shape or position-only control. Control of ferrofluidic liquid droplet robots poses a unique challenge where model-based control has been shown to be computationally limiting. Thus, in this study, a model-free control method is chosen, and it is shown that the task of learning optimal control parameters for ferrofluidic robot control can be performed using machine learning. Particularly, we explore the use of Bayesian optimization to find optimal controller parameters for 3D pose control of a ferrofluid droplet: its centroid position, stretch direction, and stretch radius. We demonstrate that the position, stretch direction, and stretch radius of a ferrofluid droplet can be independently controlled in 3D with high accuracy and precision, using a simple control approach. Finally, we use ferrofluidic robots to perform pick-and-place, a lab-on-a-chip pH test, and electrical switching, in 3D settings. The purpose of this research is to expand the potential of ferrofluidic robots by introducing full pose control in 3D and to showcase the potential of this technology in the areas of microassembly, lab-on-a-chip, and electronics.

This article presents a hand motion tracking system using multiple soft polymer acoustic waveguides (SPAWs). The innovative use of SPAWs as strain sensors offers several advantages that address the limitations. SPAWs are easily manufactured by casting a soft polymer shaped as a soft acoustic waveguide and containing a commercially available small ceramic piezoelectric transducer. When used as strain sensors, SPAWs demonstrate high stretchability (up to 100%), high linearity (<i>R</i><sup>2</sup> > 0.996 in all quasi-static, dynamic, and durability tensile tests), negligible hysteresis (<0.7410% under strain of up to 100%), excellent repeatability, and outstanding durability (up to 100,000 cycles). SPAWs also show high accuracy for continuous finger angle estimation (average root-mean-square errors [RMSE] <2.00°) at various flexion-extension speeds. Finally, a hand-tracking system is designed based on a SPAW array. An example application is developed to demonstrate the performance of SPAWs in real-time hand motion tracking in a three-dimensional (3D) virtual environment.
