A new study published in Engineering presents a significant advancement in dry adhesive technology. Researchers from Xi'an Jiaotong University ...

and the size of the rigid core on the rotation angle and adhesion strength. This innovative self-adaptive core-shell dry adhesive has considerable application potential in object manipulation ...

A self-adaptive core-shell dry adhesive with a dynamic 'live core' shows enhanced adhesion under non-parallel contact, ...

Images are projected at varying heights onto a rigid oscillating surface known as a diffuser at a rate of around three thousand times per second. This setup produces the appearance of a 3D object ...

It is a gem, as in a singular, beautiful object, and it is rigid in the sense that you cannot ... a surface of revolution [a surface created by rotating a curve once around].

An infrared beam turns a twisted elastomer loop into a self-rolling cable-car soft robot that can carry 12 times its own ...

Abstract: This paper investigates the joint rigid body and object localization using bistatic ranging. The rigid body and object localization problem is a complex optimization problem with a large ...
