Blutvergiftung kann tödlich sein. Wer bislang an Sepsis litt, musste bis zu 48 Stunden auf die Laborergebnisse warten. Eine neue Diagnostik-Plattform in Scheckkartengröße soll die Analyse künftig schon nach einer Stunde liefern. Das System basiert auf Nanopartikeln, die automatisch per Magnetkraft gesteuert werden.

In a wide ranging interview with the University of Twente News, IEEE Robotics and Automation Editor Stefano Stramigioli describes the current realities and future opportunities for robotics_____ "High up on the eighth floor of the Hoogkamp building, professor Stefano Stramigioli can often be seen moving around on a Segwey purchased by Professor Regtien for the TEAM project. This personal transportation device, not yet approved for Dutch roadways, moves according to a users own body movements. This is the home of the faculty of Advanced Robotics, the nesting ground of UT's visionaries, who toil to build a fully-functional humanoid robot, capable of working together with humans. Stamigioli says, `For a roboticist— one of the dreams is to build the most complex machine there is— to try to copy the human.' "-- --MORE--
