Detail of the robotic arm developed by the ARM2u team

A low-cost robotic arm created by students as an alternative to conventional prostheses

The ARM2u biomedical engineering team, from the UPC’s Barcelona School of Industrial Engineering (ETSEIB), is working on new functions for their low-cost 3D-printed transradial prosthesis. In addition to developing technology to control the prosthesis using AI techniques, they are working to create a hand with fingers and add it to the robotic arm. The team is looking for funding to start marketing the prosthesis and for new carriers to test the prototype.
Ions immersed in a Bose-Einstein condensate can produce polarons, with properties quite different from those of bare ions. Two separate polarons can interact via condensate density modulation forming a two-body bound state that resembles a bipolaron. In experiments, an optical tweezer is used to place ions in a Paul trap or to freeze ions’ motion, as shown in the image.
