We recently participated in the Smarter Robot Bodies, All Creator Workshop, a three-day programme led by the Advanced Research and Invention Agency (ARIA), focused on advancing science, engineering and the translation of research into real-world impact. Now over a year into the initiative, the workshop brought together funded teams, partners and experts to share progress, showcase demonstrations and explore the future of robotics. The programme combined technical deep dives with discussions on robot dexterity, product–market fit and commercialisation, alongside insights from industry, investors and policymakers. Collaborative sessions and creator clinics further supported the transition from research to application. As part of this initiative, our goal is to take our three-dimensional force sensor to the next stage of development. We are actively advancing this work with a dedicated, interdisciplinary team, driving progress from concept towards real-world deployment.
