Paleobionics: Dinosaurs are back

Oct 16, 2024

In a recent episode of Where What If Becomes What's Next, mechanical engineering professors Carmel Majidi and Aaron Johnson, with postdocotral researcher Aja Mia Carter, discuss paleobionics. Paleobionics is an emerging field at CMU that uses robots and Softbotics to help scientists better understand the biomechanical factors that drove evolution using extinct organisms. This understanding also inspires future robotic design.
