A new review has introduced an advanced Aerial Person Detection (APD) system that utilizes AI and drones to improve search and rescue (SaR) operations.

A research paper by scientists at Tianjin University presented an earthworm-inspired multimodal pneumatic continuous soft robot enhanced by wire-winding transmission.

In order to solve the difficult problem of pigeon robots in outdoor flight altitude control, Prof. Zhendong Dai's team at the School of Electromechanics, Nanjing University of Aeronautics and Astronautics (NUAA), has started an in-depth cooperation with the Brain-Computer Interface and Fusion Intelligence team at the Institute of Automation, Chinese Academy of Sciences (CASIA). For the first time, the research team has expanded the research on flight control of pigeon robots from indoor to outdoor real flight environments, and proposed a quantitative neural stimulation method based on the Locus Coeruleus (LoC) of pigeon midbrain; the research team systematically explored the effects of three key parameters, namely stimulation frequency (SF), stimulation interval (ISI), and stimulation cycle (SC) on the flight altitude control of pigeon robots.

A research paper by scientists at Beijing Institute of Technology and City University of Hong Kong presented a versatile electrodynamics simulation model designed to analyze the driving forces of partially filled electrodes to optimize the structural parameters of Digital microfluidic chips.

Recently, a research team from Shanghai Institute of Optics and Fine Mechanics (SIOM), Chinese Academy of Sciences, published a groundbreaking study in Ultrafast Science, demonstrating a novel Full-Aperture Grating Compressor (FAGC). This innovation overcomes critical limitations in traditional 4-grating compressors and provides key technical support for achieving single-channel 100-petawatt (PW) ultra-intense ultrafast lasers, a milestone in extreme physics research.
