This technology concerns silica nanostructures, mesoscale assemblies incorporating them, their manufacturing methods, and the manufacturing methods for mesoscale assemblies that include these nanostructures. It is applicable to the micro/nano structural domain within advanced materials and chemistry.
Existing technologies are limited by their access to only a restricted number of crystalline phases, poor kinetic control, and a narrow range of post-synthesis structural modifications. This technology, therefore, proposes amorphous silica nanostructures that act as nanoscale amorphous phase materials, featuring controllable surface curvature, diverse shapes, forms, and internal structures, and comprising both a filled region and a hollow interior.
Accordingly, this technology's silica nanostructures feature a hollow frame, which has at least one spherical or polyhedral shape, and a filled region where a specific material is packed within the frame. These nanostructures offer controllable surface curvature, diverse shapes, forms, and internal structures. Consequently, the manufacturing method for mesoscale assemblies provides a significant advantage in producing mesoscale assemblies with the aforementioned benefits.

This technology describes a mechanism for generating an AI model that leverages Visual Grounding technology to extract object category, position, and attribute information from images. This information is then converted into natural language instructions to plan and control a robot's manipulation trajectory.
Existing robot control methods required operators to manually input object coordinates and task details. This resulted in limitations such as the need for fixed object positions and low operational efficiency when generating commands for multiple objects.
This technology proposes a method for generating a training dataset and subsequently training an AI model. This is achieved using a first framework (GVCCI) which comprises: a visual feature extraction module that recognizes objects and extracts features from images; a module that generates context-appropriate natural language instructions; a model that infers targets and positions via a visual grounding model; and a manipulation module that plans the trajectory of a robot arm.

This technology extracts individual components of robots and obstacles, then predicts collision distances in parallel through pairwise batch operations. It trains a collision distance prediction model based on geometric feature vectors and relative transformation matrices. The minimum value among the predicted pairwise distances is calculated as the global collision distance, which can then be utilized for real-time motion planning.
Previously, high computational complexity led to performance degradation when calculating minimum distances, a crucial step for conventional motion planning algorithms in high-degree-of-freedom robot systems. Furthermore, data-driven learning methods suffered from low flexibility to environmental changes and frequent retraining requirements, limiting their versatility.
This technology proposes a model that learns by extracting relative transformation values and point cloud-based shape feature vectors between robot components and obstacles. By processing these inputs in batches and performing parallel computations, it enhances operational efficiency and provides flexibility to adapt to environmental changes without needing to retrain for specific shape elements.

This technology involves doping Mg, Ti, and Zr into a Na-Ni-Mn-Fe-based layered cathode active material to achieve a composite crystal structure where P2 and O3 phases coexist, thereby mitigating lattice deformation during charging and discharging and improving ion mobility.
Conventional transition metal-based layered cathode materials (Na-Ni-Mn-Fe system) have high discharge capacity, but they suffer from a rapid decrease in capacity retention due to structural instability during repeated charge/discharge cycles.
Accordingly, this technology proposes the design of a cathode active material with a composition of Na a Ni b Mn c Fe d Mg e Ti f Zr gO h (e.g., 0.70≤a≤0.80). Specifically, through Mg, Ti, and Zr doping, it expands the c-axis lattice within the crystal structure, thereby enhancing sodium ion diffusion performance and suppressing irreversible phase transitions, which significantly contributes to securing electrochemical cycle life and reversibility.

This technology converts RGB and depth information from images captured by a mobile robot into embedding data via an encoder module. This data is then mapped with the robot's position information to construct grid-based spatial map data. Subsequently, a decoder module generates rendered images from this map, and by learning the differences from the original captured images through a loss function, optimizes the neural network-based map generation model.
Existing grid-based map generation methods suffer from decreased map accuracy due to the accumulation of robot localization errors. They also require significant memory for storing visual information and have slow data processing speeds, making them difficult to apply in real-world robot operating environments.
This technology introduces a deep neural network encoder-decoder architecture to embed features of captured images into a grid. Through efficient position-information-based data recording and rendering processes, it is an excellent technology that can improve real-time environmental perception and localization accuracy.
