Description
The UK Government estimates that embedding robots into sectors across the nation could inject £149.9bn into the UK economy by 2035. However, there's a critical gap between the computational advances powering robot brains, and the limited hardware capabilities powering their bodies. As a result, robots lack the flexibility, speed, and precision of human manipulation, rendering them useless for the difficult and dangerous tasks where we need them most. In this session, the Advanced Research + Invention Agency’s (ARIA) CEO Ilan Gur and Programme Director Jenny Read set out how their £57m research programme aims to transform robot dexterity by catalysing innovation in hardware and harnessing advances in AI and simulation techniques.
