At the exhibition

We’re in London! Earlier today we met the Newcastle team at the Royal Society and set up our stand.

When we started this journey, we had huge ideas that we slowly trimmed down to fit our 2 x 4 metre space…

So what do we have for you? Demos that focus on the complexity of the human hand, mystery objects to get you thinking about prosthesis design, a virtual environment where you can see your muscles in action, and the opportunity to use your muscles to control a robotic hand!

Most importantly, we have a group of excited volunteers who are keen to share with you their love of science and engineering.

Come and see us!
