🚀 Only two weeks left to register for the #BrainConference Circuits for Movement! 🏃‍♂️ The conference will focus on recent advances in understanding the operating principles of neuronal circuits for motor control. Register at: loom.ly/JfsXbi8 @Lundbeckfonden The Brain Prize

Alexandros Anastasiadis has been very active recently. Stay tuned for new results showing that 1-guila can even swim backwards! New collaboration with Karthick Dhileep. Thanks for the feature FY! Fluid Dynamics! Auke Ijspeert Eric Tytell Laura Paez KMRoBoTa

It was great participating to this remotely!

When the BBC commissioned 2 reptilian #robots from Auke Ijspeert for a documentary in 2016, the scientists never imagined how testing the devices in uncontrolled environments would change their approach to #roboticdesign. KMRoBoTa Science Robotics EPFL actu.epfl.ch/news/harsh-fie…

Bravo Alexandros!!

📢🐎🎉Exciting news! Our paper is out in Nature Communications: Viability leads to the emergence of gait transitions in #learning agile #quadrupedal #locomotion on challenging terrains nature.com/articles/s4146… @milaldshafieea, Guillaume Bellegarda, Auke Ijspeert Code: miladshafiee.github.io/DeepTransition/

A quadruped robot trained with #machinelearning by EPFL researchers has learned to avoid falls by spontaneously switching between walking, trotting, and pronking – a milestone for roboticists as well as biologists interested in animal locomotion. actu.epfl.ch/news/trotting-…

Thanks for featuring it!

Thank you, Dario!!! and congrats Josie!!

Many thanks for sharing this! Also many thanks to Stefan Schaal and Jun Nakanishi (co-authors and co-winners of the prize) + the IEEE selection committee + all of you who have used or cited DMPs (dynamical movement primitives) over the years.

I am happy to announce that my lab will make live demos of our amphibious robots at the AI for Good 🇺🇳 #AIforGood #ITUaiSummit taking place on the 30 and 31st of May 2024. I will also give a talk on the Frontiers Stage on Fri 31 8:20. Int’l Telecommunication Union/United Nations  aiforgood.itu.int/summit24/

Edible robots and robotic food for reducing waste, providing nutrition in emergency, and challenging our relationship with food. Read it all in this perspective article on edible materials, components, and integration go.nature.com/4e2L5PK RoboFood EPFL NatRevMaterials

Interesting position with Ardian Jusufi:

At the Int’l Telecommunication Union #AIforGood Global Summit 2024 🎤Unveiling the future of amphibious #robotics and bio-inspired #locomotion 🗣️ Auke Ijspeert, Professor and Head of Biorobotics Laboratory from EPFL, moderator @pascale_davies from euronews 📍Frontier Stage at CICG Geneva

Int’l Telecommunication Union Auke Ijspeert EPFL Pascale Davies euronews CICG Geneva Discover the demo of this session: 🤖 Envirobot from EPFL 🇺🇳 #sdg9, #sdg14

The Envirobot demos are taking place every 30 min (full and half-hour) in the building where people pick-up their badges, opposite of the main venue. Please come and have a look!
