June 15, 2023 A team of researchers has developed a new method for controlling lower limb exoskeletons using deep reinforcement learning. The method enables more robust and natural walking control for users of ...
Feb. 8, 2022 Animal weapons can be a lot like plastic swords: impressive, but ultimately cheap. Some animals pretend to be bigger than they are by building weapons out of metabolically cheap inert materials, such ...
May 10, 2022 Thanks to their easily fossilized exoskeleton, trilobites largely dominate the fossil record of early complex animal life. However, trilobite appendages and the anatomy of the underside of their body ...
June 17, 2021 The unique mechanical and optical properties found in the exoskeleton of a humble Asian beetle has the potential to offer a fascinating new insight into how to develop new, effective bio-inspired ...
Oct. 5, 2021 Researchers explore the microstructure of the ground beetle exoskeleton using ...
June 29, 2021 In addition to providing coloration, the exoskeletal shell of beetles needs to be strong and damage tolerant, researchers ...
Dec. 20, 2021 The largest-ever fossil of a giant millipede -- as big as a car -- has been found on a beach in the north of ...
Dec. 21, 2023 Following years of research and the power of a technologically advanced instrument, scientists have detailed the complex nanoscale exoskeleton patterns of the roundworm, a model laboratory organism, ...
Apr. 25, 2022 Bloodworms are known for their unusual fang-like jaws, which are made of protein, melanin, and concentrations of copper not found elsewhere in the animal kingdom. Scientists have observed how these ...
May 11, 2021 Susceptibility of their microbial partners to the herbicide may be an underestimated weak spot of insects that could add to their ...
