How can robots adapt their physical form and control systems to handle tasks and environments? Rebecca Kramer-Bottiglio approached this question and explored how robotic skins, fabrics, and morphing limbs can demonstrate flexibility in robotic design in this week's seminar.

This week we're inviting Rebecca Kramer-Bottiglio of Yale University to speak on "Robots that Evolve on Demand," exploring shape-shifting soft robot platforms for multi-task performance and multi-environment locomotion. 10:15 AM Tues, January 28 Wu & Chen Auditorium
