Unique (and creepy) soft robots
When we think of robots, we might imagine rigid machines capable of many tasks. But there are also plenty of soft robots active in everything from space exploration to biomimicry to mechanics. They sometimes serve as exoskeletons and other times as search and rescue operators. But that’s n

Robots aren’t usually soft and squidgy. But inspired by the octopus, engineers are creating robots that can twist their way around problems that rigid robots can’t handle. Feature: The soft touch http://www.nature.com/doifinder/10.1038/530024a OCTOPUS - http://www.octopusproject.eu/ STIF

A mini, magnetic, all-terrain robot
A tiny robot is making leaps and bounds for small-scale locomotion. This soft robot really can walk the walk, as well as being able to roll, jump and swim. This could help it navigate the surprisingly tough terrain inside a human body. Read more: https://www.nature.com/articles/nature2544

Softmax Function Explained In Depth with 3D Visuals
The softmax function is often used in machine learning to transform the outputs of the last layer of your neural network (the logits) into probabilities. In this video, I explain how the softmax function works and provide some intuition for thinking about it in higher dimensions. In additi

Warm-up of Yang's TaiChi: Stance of right hollow step (Demo and Brief)
Stance of right hollow step is a pose of martial art, attack by your right, defence by your left. Be cautious that the mass is on your left and all your joints should be relaxed to keep elastic.

Snippet: New robotic gripper combines two types of soft robot tech
A new type of soft robot relies on two kinds of soft robot technology: pneumatics and dielectric elastomer actuators. Dielectric elastomer actuators move when an electric field is applied across an insulating flexible plastic, causing it to deform. These devices are fast and energy effic
