Harnessing wind to manipulate objects remotely

Berlin, Germany (SPX) Apr 30, 2024

Researchers at Aalto University have developed a novel technique using jets of wind to move objects, a potential game-changer in robotic technology. This method allows for the manipulation of objects at a distance without physical contact. "Airflow or wind is everywhere in our living environment, moving around objects like pollen, pathogens, droplets, seeds and leaves. Wind has also been a
