EPFL researchers have designed a bio-inspired robot with a novel trimmed helicoid structure that allows for a wide range of motion and safe interaction with humans.
Humans excel at manual tasks, and ideally, robots should surpass us in these functions. We have the advantage due to our superior dexterity, and we can perform tasks that robots should, in theory, be capable of.
As we advance robotics our goal is to effectively transfer our human skills to robots.
In this episode, we explore two cutting-edge environmental robots developed by ETH Zurich students: MONKEE, a tree-climbing robot for canopy research, and ReefRanger, an autonomous underwater robot that feeds and monitors corals.
Around 100 Bachelor's students from the Department of Mechanical and Process Engineering have spent two semesters working on their Focus projects in 11 teams. They will present the results of their projects on 28 May.
Discover how Turkish forging manufacturer EGEMET Ege Metal optimized the inspection of large forged parts and molds using SCANOLOGY's SIMSCAN 42 handheld 3D scanner. The transition from manual measurement to digital inspection improved accuracy, efficiency, and production flexibility.
Students at ETH Zurich have developed a laser power bed fusion machine that follows a circular tool path to print round components, thereby being able to process multiple metals at once. The system significantly reduces manufacturing time and opens up new possibilities for aerospace and industry.

Researchers from ITMO University have created a multipurpose robot complex for laser treatment of medical device surfaces, like those of dental and skull implants. The designed technology can be utilized to imbue metal implants with antibacterial and biocompatible properties, as well as mark medical items. All one needs to do is load a 3D model of an implant into a program, set a processing trajectory, and pick a surface attribute of choice.
This guide delves into the basics and components of PID control, implementation, application examples, impacts, challenges, and solutions aiming to provide readers with a thorough understanding of this integral concept.
Intelligent flying robots can perform Non-Destructive Testing inspections on various assets across various industries, including tanks, towers, pipes, flare stacks, ships, and more.
Delta arms are high-performance robotic arms that use parallel linkages and jointed construction to provide fast, precise, and flexible movement, making them ideal for various industrial and manufacturing applications.
