Exhibiting our smart and dexterous robots at the @UKRI_News Materials and Manufacturing showcase in St Paul’s London. Lots of people and great discussions! 🤖 🧑‍🏭

It was so great to have so many experts across such a diverse range of fields together for a day of collaboration within the shared aims of The VIVO Hub !!! Read more about the VIVO hub here: thevivohub.com

We had an incredible day yesterday at the launch of the VIVO hub !! We had such a busy day we barely got any photos - here’s a short snippet of what we did manage to get ! @DrEmHenderson and @Lauren_Walker4 giving incredible presentations, and a few of the interactive demos !!

A fantastic day at the #VIVO launch! Engaging talks, insightful discussions, and exciting demos showcasing the future of soft robotics. Thanks to all who joined us! #innovation #softrobotics @BristolUniEng @BristolUniMaths @BristolRobotLab

SoftLab's Andrew Conn, @voice_prof , @Sariadela_abad & @SMHadiSadati discuss the exciting potential for improved healthcare with #SoftRobotics. Thank you for hosting @claireasher! @SOROForHealth @BristolUniEng

At the @UK_Robot_Manip workshop at @KingsCollegeLon. Posters from our own Loong Yi Lee and Silvia Terrile, and now a fascinating panel session organised by @EngineerEdith! 👍 looking forward to the KCL lab tour! 😎

A fabulous evening of fun and laughter with the SoftLab team. @BristolUniEng @BristolUniMaths @BristolRobotLab

Now at the @SOROForHealth and #TidalN+ workshop, learning a lot from people with lived experience with disabilities. Now in second panel session! With @robo_elena @KasparAlthoefer @MyUpLyft and Richard Bibb of @NottmTrentUni.

Fascinating seminar from Alix Partridge @NRobotarium on 'Reflex Response Robotics and Other Stories', followed by an excellent demonstration on 2D to 3D, learning how to crochet a festive bauble. @BristolUniEng @BristolUniMaths @BristolRobotLab

See our new perspective paper on Transient and Edible Robots😋🤖in @CellPressNews Devices, doi.org/10.1016/j.devi…. Well done Qiukai Qi and all! @CaironiPME @IITalk @robo_food @EPFL @WUR

Day two of the Smart Cobotics Workshop at BRL, and a great opportunity to share some of our fascinating research. @BristolUniEng @BristolUniMaths @BristolRobotLab
