The electromagnetic future!

Robots are often seen as complex machines, but even simple magnets can help them move more naturally with people.
In this talk, I explore how magnetic technologies can improve robotics, from exoskeletons and prostheses to industrial arms. Magnets can help detect human movement and control robots more intuitively, and also provide feedback that makes users feel more connected to the device.
Overall, this approach aims to make assistive robotics more natural, responsive, and human-centered.

very product you buy has spent time on a truck. Road freight is the invisible backbone of modern life, and it is also one of the largest sources of carbon emissions in the transport sector. The good news: a transformation is already underway. Electric drivetrains, autonomous driving systems, and connected vehicle technologies are rapidly moving from concept to road. But the transition is anything but simple. Why do logistics companies hesitate to adopt cleaner technologies even when the economics start to make sense? How do researchers model a future that hasn't happened yet? And what does the freight system of 2040 actually look like? This talk takes you behind the scenes of cutting-edge transport research, tracing the road from diesel to data, and from a lone truck driver to a fleet of autonomous vehicles reshaping how the world moves its goods.
