Cosserat rod models for soft robots usually construct sectional stiffness by summing material properties over a common cross-section. This assumption becomes inaccurate for trimmed helicoid arms, where load-bearing helix domains are separated and connected only through sparse fused crossings. This paper formulates a se …
Reach-and-attach of soft robotic arms with passive suction requires accurate targeting and sufficient contact speed, yet geared actuators can impose a speed limit that improved trajectory tracking alone cannot overcome. This paper proposes an embodied snap controller that separates slow servo-driven preloading from rap …
The widespread adoption of long-horizon agents has made model workloads increasingly input-heavy. Although prior work has substantially reduced the cost of long-context computation, prefill remains computationally expensive, and large KV caches continue to strain HBM and SSD capacity and data-transfer bandwidth. Togeth …
