Join us at swissnex San Francisco to learn the science and technology behind some of the world’s coolest and most advanced bio-inspired robots. Along with special guests from Stanford University, NASA, and UC Berkeley, Auke Ijspeert of the Biorobotics Laboratory from Switzerland’s EPFL shares the secrets of the Lab’s fast-running cheetah robot, a salamander bot that navigates both land and water, and modular machines designed to be the building blocks for furniture that moves and evolves. The Lab also tours its creatures throughout the Bay Area Science Festival.
