SuperAnimal pretrained pose estimation models for behavioral analysis

Alexander Mathis, Mackenzie Mathis, Shaokai Ye, Steffen Schneider, Jessy Lauer, Tian Qiu, Maxime Michel André Vidal, Anastasiia Filippova

Quantification of behavior is critical in diverse applications from neuroscience, veterinary medicine to animal conservation. A common key step for behavioral analysis is first extracting relevant keypoints on animals, known as pose estimation. However, re ...

Auxetic Metamaterial Simplifies Soft Robot Design

Tian Qiu

Soft materials are being adopted in robotics in order to facilitate biomedical applications and in order to achieve simpler and more capable robots. One route to simplification is to design the robot's body using 'smart materials' that carry the burden of ...

Structured light enables biomimetic swimming and versatile locomotion of photoresponsive soft microrobots

Tian Qiu

Microorganisms move in challenging environments by periodic changes in body shape. In contrast, current artificial microrobots cannot actively deform, exhibiting at best passive bending under external fields. Here, by taking advantage of the wireless, scal ...

Active Nanorheology with Plasmonics

Tian Qiu, Hyeonho Jeong

Nanoplasmonic systems are valued for their strong optical response and their small size. Most plasmonic sensors and systems to date have been rigid and passive. However, rendering these structures dynamic opens new possibilities for applications. Here we d ...

Swimming by reciprocal motion at low Reynolds number

Tian Qiu

Biological microorganisms swim with flagella and cilia that execute nonreciprocal motions for low Reynolds number (Re) propulsion in viscous fluids. This symmetry requirement is a consequence of Purcell's scallop theorem, which complicates the actuation sc ...

Microdevices for Locomotion in Complex Biological Fluids

Tian Qiu

Locomotion is an essential feature for survival of many organisms, and it is also a technical requirement for untethered biomedical microdevices to operate inside the human body for targeted drug delivery and minimally invasive surgery. The overall goal of ...
