We’re delighted that our lab was represented at the 2025 IEEE/SICE International Symposium on System Integration (SII) in Munich! One of our Ph.D. students presented the team’s ongoing work on the Open-Source Prosthetic Leg v2.0. The leg is built upon the Open Source Leg v2.0 from the Neurobionics L...

As already communicated about one year ago, the AIROB team will deal with stroke rehabilitation in the next 3 years, thanks to a project which we have just acquired. The project is called AutoAssist and is a cooperation between us, the IBMT Fraunhofer, Ottobock, NEEEU! Spaces, and Teigler GmbH. W...

What a great time! We have been visiting the ETHZ, the Technical University of Zürich, namely Luca Benini's Integrated Systems Laboratory. Dr. Andrea Cossettini, our host, has shown us what one can achieve by integrating ultraminiaturised electronics, smart materials and a lot of fantasy. T...

After multiple courses at KinderUni Nürnberg the FAU started their first own KinderUni. Sabine Thürauf of AIRob lab gave two courses about "AI is as divers as we are" to teach the children what diversity and AI are, the benefits and issues which occur and what they need to do in future to teach an AI to get a fair world for all of us.

Good news for our students, especially for those who need to sit the exams for IDF (Intent Detection and Feedback) and RAR (Rehabilitation and Assistive Robotics), which are not being offered in this semester: the course material of the past semester is available for you to download and peruse. I...

We are proud to announce that AIROB has acquired a new project about upper-limb prosthetics called DexterHand. DexterHand is about creating a new generation of upper-limb prostheses endowed with fine intent detection for simultaneous and proportional control, and somato-sensory feedback for prope...

Glad to share some more exciting news: after Andrea's successful defense, Marek Sierotowicz, too, successfully defended his dissertation, called From Exoskeletons to Exonerves: Adaptive Support of Movements through Wearable Assistive Robotics. The judging committee, composed of professors from the F...

On this Monday's 3rd conference of the Department of Artificial Intelligence in Biomedical Engineering, AIROB lab successfully participated with an inspiring talk by Marek Sierotowicz and two Posters by Marc-Anton Scheidl and Fabio Egle. An additional demonstration of online myocontrol was prepared ...

Last week Andrea defended his thesis, titled Interaction-Driven Approaches for Efficient and Autonomous Calibration of Myoelectric Controllers, in front of a mixed FAU/TUM committee. His final grade is 1.11, meaning excellent. Andrea, congratulations on behalf of the group, and best wishes for...
