[ENCI-l] ASME talk (New Ideas on Robotic)

[engg-enci-l at mailman.ucalgary.ca]

Dear Students,

 

The student chapter of ASME (American Society of Mechanical Engineers) at
the University of Calgary is going to play a couple of recorded talks by

Robert Full on the following topics:

 

1) How engineers learn from evolution

 

2) Secrets of movement, from geckos and roaches

 

 

Robert Full is a UC Berkeley researcher who studies cockroach legs to build
the perfect "distributed foot" for tomorrow's robots. He's helped

create robots, such as Spinybot. This robot can walk up sheer glass like a
gecko.

 

Place: MEB 402

Time: Thursday, March 26, 12pm -1pm

 

Please feel free to bring your lunch.

 

 

 

Sincerely,

 

 

Student Chapter of ASME
