Now in its second year, XSeed addresses a complex multi-disciplinary challenge. Two recently funded robotics projects include: Continuum magnetic robots for minimally-invasive robotic surgery and industrial inspection — Eric Diller […]
U of T Engineering and the AGE-WELL Network of Centres of Excellence has partnered with the Huazhong University of Science and Technology (HUST) in China to launch a centre dedicated to researching and commercializing robotics for elder care. The centre will be virtually housed within the U of T Robotics Institute.
Newly released data from a collaboration between the University of Toronto, the University of Waterloo and Scale AI will help train future self-driving cars to handle the challenges of winter […]
Two University of Toronto researchers are at the centre of the world’s first robot-assisted brain surgery, testing a system that could allow them to operate remotely on stroke and aneurysm patients in the near future.
There aren’t many engineers who can say they’ve worked with Drake and Metallica, but Raffaello D’Andrea can.
As founder of Verity Studios, D’Andrea (EngSci 9T1) and his team specialize in creating indoor light displays for live events with dozens of autonomous drones flying in tandem. The Zurich-based company is known for its precision drone technology and its ability to provide a complete solution, from development to execution.
Nature Scientific Reports has published a new paper on soft robotics by Prof. Hani Naguib.
The new University of Toronto Robotics Institute establishes a central headquarters for world-leading robotics research across U of T and beyond.
UofT researchers presented 25 papers at ICRA this year, covering everything from micro-manipulators to autonomous vehicles and drone swarms, to robot assistants.
Researchers in Prof. Eric Diller's lab create magnetized microrobots — the size of the head of a pin — that can travel through fluid-filled vessels and organs within the human body.
Researcher's in Prof. Yu Sun's lab have built a set of magnetic ‘tweezers’ that can position a nano-scale bead inside a human cell in three dimensions with unprecedented precision.
