Mobile robotics moves forward on standardisation

Animal Behavior: Fly Flight Moves Forward

A new study has resolved the paradox of how flies maintain reflexive aversion to your approaching swatter, whilst tolerating similar visual signals during normal forward flight.

The cyclin-dependent kinase pathway moves forward.

The cell cycle of mammalian cells is divided into four phases: G1 (first gap), S (DNA synthesis), G2 (second gap), and M (mitosis). Quiescent cells that have not entered the cell cycle are referred to as being in G0. Progression through the cell cycle requires the activation of cyclindependent kinases (CDKs). CDK activation is dependent on the association of the CDK with a cyclin regulatory sub...

Robotics 3 FORWARD AND INVERSE

Micro-Scale Mobile Robotics

The field of microrobotics has seen tremendous advances in recent years. The principles governing the design of such submillimeter scale robots rely on an understanding of microscale physics, fabrication, and novel control strategies. This monograph provides a tutorial on the relevant physical phenomena governing the operation and design of microrobots, as well as a survey of existing approache...
