AUTONOMOUS SYSTEMS
Robotics & Autonomous Systems.
Robotics is where the region's precision culture meets its appetite for hard engineering problems. From ETH Zurich's legged-robot research to Esslingen's bionics demonstrators, the Alpine belt has become one of the world's densest sources of autonomous-systems innovation — and, unusually, of companies that move that research into mines, refineries and power plants.
This topic gathers the machines and the minds behind them: robots built to go where wheels cannot, to fly as birds do, and to take over the rounds humans should not have to make.
