Wie funktioniert ein Roboterarm? Was ist Künstliche Intelligenz? Und haben Maschinen eigentlich Rechte? Im neuen Sachbuch "Globi und die Roboter" geht Globi diesen Fragen auf den Grund und beleuchtet Aspekte unserer digitalen Welt, die auch Kinder in ihrem Alltag erleben. Das Buch feierte Ende Oktober seine Premiere mit einer Globi-Show auf dem CYBATHLON der ETH Zürich in Kloten. Ein Gespräch mit dem Wissenschaftsjournalisten und Buchautor, Atlant Bieri über technologische Entwicklungen als Thema für Kinderbücher: https://lnkd.in/eqk2hFw7 #assistivetechnology #disabilityinclusion #robotics #cybathlon #globi -

At CYBATHLON 2024, teams demonstrated impressive and cutting-edge leg prostheses, each uniquely designed to enhance mobility and improve daily life for people with lower limb disabilities. From BruBotics’ (Belgium) active transfemoral prosthesis with two active joints for natural movement, to the cost-effective and 3D-printed "Knee4me" by Contur 2000 (Poland), each innovation was meant for diverse needs. Össur (Iceland) showcased their Power Knee with an advanced microprocessor, while SoftFoot Pro (Italy) focused on a passive, adaptive design for navigating uneven ground. NeuroLegs (Switzerland) introduced sensory feedback technology, adding ‘touch’ to their prosthetic for enhanced stability. From waterproof, everyday-use solutions by ottobock.X3 (Switzerland) to REHAB TECH LEG’s (Italy) Omnia that integrates hydraulics and carbon for a smooth, energy-efficient walk, CYBATHLON 2024 highlighted the vast potential of leg prostheses to support freedom and independence.Indian Institute of Technology, Madras BruBotics - Vrije Universiteit Brussel Ciervo Neuroengineering Lab NWU Engineering Alumni Össur RESC ETH Zürich Ottobock Rehab Technologies Lab Istituto Italiano di Tecnologia #assistivetechnology #disabilityinclusion #prosthetics #technologicalinnovation -

We would like to express our gratitude and admiration for the perseverance and teamwork of Project MARCH, the amazing Dutch Exoskeleton Race team. The team's quick thinking, fast action, and problem-solving efforts demonstrated the tenacity that exemplifies CYBATHLON's spirit while facing unexpected technical issues, such as interference concerns and time constraints. Although they could not complete the race, their dedication, flexibility, and the motivating support of their community were evident at every turn. We appreciate Project MARCH's enthusiasm and commitment and look forward to seeing the continued impact of your innovation and teamwork! #assistivetechnology #disabilityinclusion #technologicalinnovation #exoskeleton #cybathlon2024 -
