The importance of force sensitivity in robots that interact with unknown disturbance is acknowledged. For the manipulators, impedance controlled robots realized safe and robust object manipulation. For the legged mechanism, it is expected to enhance locomotion stability, since locomotion fundamentally is a manipulation of the center of mass. In order to maximize force sensitivity, both the forc...

The electromagnetic spectrum extends from Hertz to terahertz. In this large range of EM spectrum there are window defining the smaller ranges and one of the important windows which covers frequency range from 3GHz to 30GHz is known as Microwaves. These Microwaves have various applications in communication Industrial, Medical and Remote Sensing. The Microwaves have unique Properties that include...

Miniature magnetic-driven robots with multimode motions and high-precision pose sensing capacity (position orientation) are greatly demanded in situ manipulation narrow opaque enclosed spaces. Various magnetic have been carried out, whereas their deformations normally remain single mode, the lack of robot’s real-time status leads to its beyond-sight remagnetization being impossible. The functio...

This work presents a soft, flexible, and low-cost capacitive pressure-sensitive insole developed using resource-efficient single-step 3D printing method. Developed elastomeric materials, the soft robust sensory can bend twist in extreme angles. The is designed to have four sensing zones capture pressure information from entire contact area. sensors tested under different condition of applied sh...

Rodents demonstrate an outstanding capability of texture discrimination and shape recognition with their whiskers (vibrissae). Many neurophysiological and behavioural studies reported that active whisking plays a critical role on tactile perception. However, the role and limitation of passive sensing has not been studied in detail. In this paper, we compare passive sensing and active sensing fo...

In this paper, we present a Link-16-based tactical data link (TDL) simulator with cognitive antijamming capability (CAJC). CAJC improves antijamming capability of existing TDL by adding the cognitive radio (CR) spectrum sensing-based jammer detection. In the presented TDL, each terminal that senses (or detects) the jammer signal can avoid the jammer spectrum opportunistically. For jammer signal...
