The conventional pneumatic soft robot has the problem of insufficient stiffness, while in the magnetorheological soft robot, the magnetic field provided by electromagnet has the disadvantage of oversized structure and poor flexibility. This paper pre...
Self-sustained motion can take advantage of direct energy extraction from a steady external environment to maintain its own motion, and has potential applications in energy harvesting, robotic motion, and transportation. Recent experiments have found...
We designed, fabricated and measured full-color, reflective electrowetting displays (EWDs). The display system is composed of three-layer cyan, magenta and yellow EWD elements fabricated with standard photolithographic techniques. The EWDs were drive...
Triethylaluminum Al(C2H5)3, TEA, and triethylborane, B(C2H5)3, TEB, are transparent, colorless, pyrophoric liquids with boiling points of approximately 190 °C and 95 °C, respectively. Upon contact with ambient air, TEA, TEB, as well as their...
Resonant elements can generate small amounts of energy that make them pertinent for feeding miniaturized accelerometers with the energy needed. Suitable oscillator candidates are Helmholtz resonators, which have been, for a long time, analyzed and de...
Considering the prerequisite need for a protected e-commerce platform, absence of haptic interaction in head-mounted displays (HMD), and exploitation of faster communication technology, this research work aims to present an amended version of the tel...
The soft gripper has received extensive attention, due to its good adaptability and flexibility. The dielectric elastomer (DE) actuator as a flexible electroactive polymer that provides a new approach for soft grippers. However, they have the disadva...
Lossless data compression is a crucial and computing-intensive application in data-centric scenarios. To reduce the CPU overhead, FPGA-based accelerators have been proposed to offload compression workloads. However, most existing schemes have the pro...
Micro/nanorobots have several potential biomedical applications, such as drug delivery, minimal invasiveness, and moving within narrow and complex areas. To achieve these desirable applications, precise path tracking and controlling magnetic micro/na...
Miniaturized mechanical testing based on small sample testing technology is a powerful technique to characterize the mechanical properties of different materials, and it is being used in different application fields. However, the small size of the sp...
