Modeling and control of soft robotic systems remains a challenging and active field of research, especially for robots actuated with shape-memory-alloys (SMA). Difficulties in controlling SMA-actuated robots arise in modeling the nonlinearities of the SMA dynamics as well as accounting for their hysteresis behavior. This article helps address these challenges by using sensorization of the end effector along with SMA actuators combined with a simplified two-axis pendulum model to implement an optimal control scheme on a soft digit. The control stack presented uses a direct collocation method (DIRCOL) for initial trajectory optimization, with the actual state of the soft digit then captured and used to refine the system inputs using Iterative Learning Control (ILC) to increase trajectory tracking accuracy. The system is demonstrated on hardware, achieving very close trajectory tracking performance for two-dimensional motion tasks.
In this study, we explore the classification and prediction capabilities of three models-Genetic programming (GP), Logistic Regression (LR), and the Kolmogorov-Arnold Network (KAN)-on the task of sodium-ion battery li...

This paper introduces a novel high-precision compliant mechanism-based 3-degree-of-freedom (3-DOF) positioning stage with a large range and planar layout. The design incorporates a cartwheel revolute flexure and compound basic parallelogram (CBP) prismatic flexure modules arranged in series to establish a PPR-kinematic chain. Three such kinematic chains are symmetrically arranged at 120° to each other around the output platform. This design ensures large deformation and high dynamic performance while minimizing cross-coupling and parasitic motion. The compliance matrix method (CMM) is utilized to establish the stiffness model of the designed mechanism. Computational analysis is performed to validate the developed analytical model. Moreover, the reachable workspace, inverse kinematics, and dynamic performance of the proposed stage are investigated. A workspace of 4.6 mm × 5.1 mm × 83 mrad is achieved while maintaining a high natural frequency of 58 Hz. From the analysis, the proposed stage can be adopted in micro-manipulation applications that require high-precision motion over an extended range.

This research addresses the critical challenge of enhancing object recognition and real-time response capabilities in autonomous vehicles (AVs) under varying simulated conditions, which is crucial for ensuring both navigational safety and operational efficiency. Utilizing the Carla 0.9.14 simulator and Unreal Engine 4.26 on Ubuntu 20.04, we focus on improving the detection and classification of key on-road obstacles—vehicles, pedestrians, and cyclists—using the YOLOv7 object detection algorithm. By integrating advanced sensory technologies, specifically stereo vision cameras and LIDAR, we create a dynamic testing environment that simulates diverse urban and rural scenarios. Our methodology enhances the YOLOv7 algorithm's accuracy and speed through extensive training on a meticulously curated dataset of 4,113 images, reflecting a broad spectrum of environmental conditions, including varying lighting and weather conditions. This rigorous approach yielded a significant increase in mean average precision (mAP) from 64.3% to 76.3%, and enhanced the algorithm's reliability, with notable improvements over previous models. The research delineates a clear advancement in AV technology by demonstrating substantial improvements in object detection metrics, contributing foundational insights for future implementations in real-world settings and supporting the further development of real-time avoidance systems. This study not only progresses the field of AV but also sets a new benchmark for object detection performance, aligning with industry and academic goals to optimize AV systems for complex and unpredictable driving scenarios.
