• Sensors, Vol. 13, Pages 4527-4552: Localization and Mapping Using Only a Rotating FMCW Radar Sensor

  Rotating radar sensors are perception systems rarely used in mobile robotics. This paper is concerned with the use of a mobile ground-based panoramic radar sensor which is able to deliver both distance and velocity of multiple targets in its surrounding. The consequence of using such a sensor in hig more

• Multiple Shape Transformations of Composite Hydrogel Sheets

  Soft materials undergoing shape transformations in response to changes in ambient environment have potential applications in tissue engineering, robotics and biosensing. Generally, stimulus-responsive materials acquire two stable shapes corresponding to the “on” and “off” states of the external trig more

• Ionic electroactive polymer metal composites: Fabricating, modeling, and applications of postsilicon smart devices

  Abstract Smart systems adapt to the surrounding environments in a number of ways. They are capable to scavenge energy from available sources, sense and elaborate external stimuli and adequately react. Electro Active Polymers are playing a main role in the realization of smart systems for applica more
