The next generation of autonomous-legged robots will herald a new era in the fields of manufacturing, healthcare, terrain exploration, and surveillance. We can expect significant progress in a number of industries, including inspection, search and rescue, elderly care, workplace safety, and nuclear decommissioning. Advanced legged robots are built with a state-of-the-art architecture that makes use of stereo vision and inertial measurement data to navigate unfamiliar and challenging terrains.

As a result, it is essential to look into alternative methods of producing power. Solar photovoltaic (PV) power plants utilize the sun's clean energy, but they're not always dependable since they depend on weather patterns and requires vast amount of land.

It was first introduced to the world by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) through its Apollo Mission in the '60s. It can successfully design a virtual object from its physical counterpart.

While a series of studies have been conducted on improving SWT's efficiency, optimal performance has yet to be achieved using traditional design approaches such as experimental and/or computational fluid dynamics methods. Recently, artificial intelligence and machine learning have been widely used in design optimization.
