PB&J: Peanut Butter and Joints for Damped Articulation
Many bioinspired robots mimic the rigid articulated joint structure of the human hand for grasping tasks, but experience high-frequency mechanical perturbations that can destabilize the system and negatively affect precision without a high-frequency controller. Despite having bandwidth-limited controllers that experience time delays between sensing and actuation, biological systems can respond successfully to and mitigate these high-frequency perturbations. Human joints include damping and stif…

A new class of aesthetic curves based on the self-affinity in equiaffine geometry
In this paper, we consider planar curves in equiaffine geometry and present a family of planar curves characterized by a symmetry called the extendable self-affinity (ESA). The ESA has been recognized through the investigation of the symmetry of the log-aesthetic curve (LAC), which has been studied as a reference for designing aesthetic shapes in CAGD and regarded as an analog of Euler's elastica in similarity geometry. Our new class, characterized by the ESA, includes the quadratic curve and t…

2D PZT MEMS Resonant Scanner Using a Three-Mask Process
This work presents the design, simulation, fabrication, and characterization of a novel architectural compact two-dimensional (2D) resonant MEMS scanning mirror actuated by thin-film lead zirconate titanate (PZT). The device employs an innovative mechanically coupled dual-axis architecture fabricated using a three-mask process on an SOI-PZT deposited wafer, significantly reducing system complexity while achieving high performance. The scanner integrates a 1 $\times$ 1.4 mm oval mirror within a …

Series B, Episode 05 - Pressure Point
AVON: If I can fire at ground level, the beam radiation should be great enough to cut a narrow channel through the sensor mesh. That would give you eight seconds to get from here to the blockhouse. The mesh would start its repair cycle instantly. Take one step off the channel and you're dead. I know it's a slim chance, but it's the best I can come up with.
BLAKE: Let's try it.
