Kinematic Neural Networks: A New Paradigm for Embodied Mechanical Intelligence

Physical Artificial Intelligence and Mechanical Neural Networks (MNNs) embed information processing in physical structures. This paper investigates a complementary route based on deterministic rigid-body kinematics. We formulate a Kinematic Neural Network (KNN) as a layered linkage computation graph whose geometric par...

Physically Aware Generative Design for Spatial Mechanism Synthesis: A Differentiable Diffusion-Refinement Framework

Spatial mechanism synthesis requires joint reasoning over discrete topology and continuous geometry under strict loop-closure constraints. Existing search-based methods are often tied to predefined topology spaces, while purely data-driven generators can produce topologically plausible but kinematically infeasible mech...

Reconfiguration-Complete Motion Primitives with Constructive Planning for Deformable Planar Modular Robots

This letter introduces a square-cell abstraction that maps deformable rhombus modules to fixed-size grid cells while retaining physically interpretable local motions through two primitives, pivoting and shearing, and proves that every non-straight edge-connected configuration can be transformed to a fixed canonical sta...
