£3.9m to develop 3d printed RF PCBs in the UK

£3.9m to develop 3d printed RF PCBs in the UK

Loughborough University is to develop an additive manufacturing technique to produce PCBs for RF circuits, removing the waste associated with the conventional etch-laminate-and-plate process. The process has been branded Symeta (synthesising 3d metamaterials, pronounced sci-meta) and has £3.9m funding from the EPSRC. “Now we have a ground plane, components and transmission lines,” Professor Yiannis Vardaxoglou ...

Robots fall with grace

Robots fall with grace

Bipedal robots will inevitably fall over, and researchers at Georgia Tech have identified a way to teach falling robots how to land with grace, and reduced damage. The resulting algorithm, developed by Dr Sehoon Ha and Professor Karen Liu, tells a robot how to react to a variety of falls – from a single step ...
