Are physically embodied social agents better than disembodied social agents? : the effects of physical embodiment, tactile interaction, and people's loneliness in human–robot interaction by Lee, Kwan Min, Jung, Younbo, Kim, Jaywoo, Kim, Sang Ryong

“…In addition, Experiment 2 indicates that lonely people feel higher social presence of social agents, and provide more positive social responses to social agents than non-lonely people. The importance of physical embodiment and tactile communication in human-agent interaction and the diverse role of social robots, especially for the lonely population, are discussed.…”

Proposed Design for Electromechanical Telescoping Actuator to Replace Hydraulics in Extreme High Force and Long Stroke Applications by Sleight Crawford, Carmen, Smyk, Mariia, Cheung, Sophia, Coughran, Doug, Costello, Jeffrey, Liang, ZhiYi, Winter, Amos G

“…The proposed design relies on screw and nut mechanisms that are engaged simultaneously in a telescoping manner and is able to achieve more than double extension of its collapsed length. Our group was able to successfully develop and evaluate the design and build a scaled-down prototype that could likely serve as a direct replacement for currently used long-stroke high-force hydraulics. …”

Defect detection of GFRP composites through long pulse thermography using an uncooled microbolometer infrared camera by Anwar, Murniwati, Mustapha, Faizal, Abdullah, Mohd Na’im, Mustapha, Mazli, Sallih, Nabihah, Ahmad, Azlan, Mat Daud, Siti Zubaidah

“…Challenges in detecting these defects arise from varying responses based on the geometrical shape, thickness, and defect types. Long Pulse Thermography (LPT), utilizing an uncooled microbolometer and a low-resolution infrared (IR) camera, presents a promising solution for detecting both depth and impact defects in GFRP materials with a single setup and minimal tools at an economical cost. …”
