It was an absolute joy to serve as an external evaluator for the EU Project Proboscis_project yesterday. A wealth of really cool research ranging from clever tracking of elephant trunk manipulation, innovative 3D printing, novel soft sensing technology to control of soft robots.


Thanks for sharing this amazing news coming from our project! EU Research Results Keep following us ;)


Yesterday our Matteo Lo Preti IIT showed some highlights on the research he is carrying out on the morphological properties of the #elephant #skin at IEEERoboSoft #robosoft2023 #softrobotics #research #bioinspiration #biorobotics #perception #artificialskin #technology


Some results were showed by the project our coordinator Lucia Beccai IIT during her invited talk titled “Studying the elephant trunk from macro to microscale towards new continuum manipulators” at IEEERoboSoft #RoboSoft2023 #ieee #softrobotics #bioinspiration #biorobotics

This our paper"Jointelss Bionspired Soft Robotics by Harnessing Micro and Macropososity"on @AdvSciNews.Congratulations our authors S.Joe, O.Bliah, S.Magdassi and Lucia Beccai IIT European Innovation Council #robotics #softrobotics #bioinspiration #3dprinting #actuation #softmaterials #continuum

Our Behnam Kamare and colleagues from Soft Biorobotics Perception Laboratory IIT led by Lucia Beccai won the Best Oral Presentation Award at #LivingMachines2023 Acquario di Genova with the work“Study and preliminary modeling of microstructure and morphology of the elephant trunk skin” The Milinkovitch-Tzika lab Université de Genève



Last week our coordinator Lucia Beccai IIT Soft Biorobotics Perception Laboratory with Prof. Cecilia Laschi organized the #Workshop “Embodied Exploration Through Muscular Hydrostats” at #Robosoft2024 in San Diego (USA) bit.ly/3UoUzfl #biorobotics #hydrostatomuscular #research #bioinspiration

May 13th our coordinator Lucia Beccai IIT Soft Biorobotics Perception Laboratory with E.Falotico, I.Walker and Cho will hold a #Workshop "Soft continuum manipulators: Bottlenecks and Applications" at IEEE ICRA. #eu_proboscis will receive a prize for the best poster award. bit.ly/4buE1cz
