Thanks to groundbreaking concepts such as generative design and topology optimization software, additive manufacturing is liberating design engineers in ways that were unfathomable even a decade ago.

Columbia Engineering researchers have developed an AI that can generate kinematic mechanisms directly from visual shape prompts, marking a first in automating this creative engineering process. The ...

In a TED Talk on the incredible potential of flexible, soft robots, Giada Gerboni asks audiences to consider the standard approach to robotic design—not the brain, but the rigid exoskeleton. Robots ...
