We introduce a new concept for the fabrication of birefringent microlenses with high quality and give an overview of existing static birefringent microlens technology. It is shown that liquid crystal monomers and polymers can be used to fabricate high-qual ...
This paper introduces adaptation-aware editing and progressive update propagation, two novel mechanisms that enable authoring multimedia content and collaborative work on mobile devices. Adaptation-aware editing enables editing content that was adapted to ...
This paper addresses the cooperative transport of a heavy object, called prey, towards a sporadically changing target location by a group of robots. The study is focused on the situation in which some robots are given the opportunity to localize the target ...
This paper discusses the solid state and melt nanoscale structure of a series of novel poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) hybrid di- and triblock copolymers, which contain amphiphilic β-strand peptide sequences. The block copolymers have been prepared via solid-p ...
This paper presents a new robotic concept, called SWARM-BOT, based on a swarm of autonomous mobile robots with self-assembling capabilities. SWARM-BOT takes advantage from collective and distributed approaches to ensure robustness to failures and to hard e ...
This paper presents two main contributions: semi-passive replication and Lazy Consensus. The former is a replication technique with parsimonious processing. It is based on the latter; a variant of Consensus allowing the lazy evaluation of proposed values. ...
In this paper, we study aggregation in a swarm of simple robots, called s-bots, having the capability to self-organize and self-assemble to form a robotic system, called a swarm-bot. The aggregation process, observed in many biological systems, is of funda ...
SU-8 is a photoplastic polymer with a wide range of applications in microtechnology. Cantilevers designed for a commercial Atomic Force Microscope (AFM) were fabricated in SU-8. The mechanical properties of these cantilevers were investigated using two mic ...
This report describes the synthesis and supramolecular organization of a novel class of linear-dendritic block copolymers. The molecules, which are termed rodcoil dendrons, consist of a cholesterol moiety that is attached to L-lysine dendrons of three diff ...
In this paper we introduce a new robotic system, called swarm-bot. The system consists of a swarm of mobile robots with the ability to connect to/disconnect from each other to self-assemble into different kinds of structures. First, we describe our vision ...
