And in classical space words, "we do these things not because they are easy but because they are hard" 🚀

Very stereotypical of me to share this, but I’ve always loved the design of these things, there’s a certain beauty to it 🇮🇹

Best of luck of all of our colleagues taking part in IROS 2022 today. Today's contributions include “A Soft Fabric-Based Shrink-To-Fit Pneumatic Sleeve for Comfortable Limb Assistance” paper and a keynote from Sabine Hauert “Swarms for People”. Sam Hoh Emanuele Pulvirenti #IROS2022

Great work from Estelle Raffy and Vijay for organising this! 🔥

The Space Launch System has roared to life, launching the Orion Spacecraft spacecraft on its journey for #Artemis I! Look out Moon, we are on the way!

Congratulations to Valentina Lo Gatto (Valentina Lo Gatto) for her beautiful cover image in Soft Robotics! It's based on our paper in IEEE RoboSoft conference (10.1109/RoboSoft48309.2020.9116052). Helmut Hauser, BristolEngMaths, BristolRoboticsLab

Landmark new 10-year BristolRoboticsLab agreement just signed between UWE Bristol and University of Bristol! What a great future we have planned! After the signing we showed our SoftLab Bristol robotic power clothing to both VCs, Evelyn Welch and Steve West.

Proud to be part of this exciting group of people, sharing their research and celebrating another successful year @BristolUniEng Bristol Mathematics BristolRoboticsLab

What an incredible time at #SpaceCHI2023 hosted by MIT Media Lab! Presented our collaborative paper on wearable tech for health maintenance in space, together with Foster + Partners. Witnessing the formation of an amazing community. The accessibility of space has never felt more real.

So proud of our MSc students producing high quality work! Can't wait to see what the future holds 🚀 @BristolUniEng BristolRoboticsLab

🤖🕺 Exciting times ahead! Exploring the future of dance with soft robots - a collaboration between artists, roboticists, and sociologists. Stay tuned for a mesmerizing fusion of human-robot movement in the world of performance art! 🌟 #SoftRobots #ArtandTech SoftLab Bristol

A real pleasure to have Anna Talvi visiting us yesterday, one more step towards future spacesuits 🚀

Join us a on May 13th for Pint of Science UK! Have a pint, discover how to keep humans healthy and strong on Mars and delve into acoustic tractor beams research with Prof @sonic_bruce! 🚀🔬🍻 🗓13th May 2024 📍Eldon House pub, Bristol 🎟Book here pintofscience.co.uk/event/tractor-… 👈

Pioneering work from Prof Minetti, Gaspare, Valentina,and Francesco Luciano from Università degli Studi di Milano 🚀 These people never cease to amaze me, so honored to have worked with them on new space suits concepts. Ad astra my friends! theguardian.com/science/2024/m…

More detail on the amazing work on keeping astronauts healthy on the Moon by Prof Minetti, Dr Pavei, Valentina, and Francesco Luciano. I think these guys definitely deserve an Ig Nobel Prizes, right? 👀👀👀

Looking forward to presenting “Advancing Space Health: Towards a Soft Wearable Hypogravity Exosuit for Enhanced Mobility in Martian Conditions” at IAC 2024 in Milan! 🌍 📅 17 Oct, 3:00 PM, Space Hall 4: I’ll share how the HEXsuit can boost mobility & astronaut health on Mars. 🚀

Out now in Royal Society Publishing!😍 Luca Ruggiero alberto minetti @GasparePavei. Most times we walk, we do it for short bouts. At what metabolic cost? More than we expected. The Guardian: bit.ly/4eS51Fi The Times of London: bit.ly/3BOC2TZ #ProcB: doi.org/10.1098/rspb.2…

Had a great time presenting my soft hypogravity exosuit at IAC 2024 in Milan 🇮🇹! Leaving with fresh ideas to progress human space exploration and rehabilitation here on Earth. To still boldly go, and stay. 🚀 Thanks to everyone I've met—until next time!

🚀 New paper out in Acta Astronautica! I explore how pneumatic artificial muscles could help maintain astronauts’ muscle health in Martian gravity 💪🪐 A first step toward wearable countermeasures for long missions. 🔗 doi.org/10.1016/j.acta…
