TL;DR: Two channelrhodopsins, Chronos and Chrimson, are described, discovered through sequencing and physiological characterization of opsins from over 100 species of alga, that enable two-color activation of neural spiking and downstream synaptic transmission in independent neural populations without detectable cross-talk in mouse brain slice.

TL;DR: Chronos and Chrimson as mentioned in this paper have been shown to enable two-color activation of neural spiking and downstream synaptic transmission in independent neural populations without detectable cross-talk in mouse brain slice.
Journal ArticleDOI
A Soft, Steerable Continuum Robot That Grows via Tip Extension.
TL;DR: The design, modeling, and control of a soft continuum robot with a tip extension degree of freedom is described that enables extremely simple navigation of the robot through decoupled steering and forward movement.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Series pneumatic artificial muscles (sPAMs) and application to a soft continuum robot
TL;DR: A new series pneumatic artificial muscle (sPAM) and its application as an actuator for a soft continuum robot, which is entirely soft and contains no hard components, making it safer for human interaction.
Journal ArticleDOI
Design of 3-D Printed Concentric Tube Robots
TL;DR: The design requirements and manufacturing constraints for 3-D printed concentric tube robots are defined and the capabilities of these robots are experimentally demonstrated.
