During Phase III, the InDEEP finalists have been hard at work developing their DEEC-Tec concepts in advance of the final event in March. Today, we’re spotlighting finalist Artimus Robotics.
InDEEP finalist Artimus Robotics is enabling new capabilities in bio-inspired robotics and distributed energy harvesting systems to pioneer the untapped potential of the deep sea.
Their team has developed a new type of soft transducer, called a hydraulically amplified soft electrostatic (HASEL) transducer, that acts as an actuator, sensor, and generator all in one device. The dual-use HASEL-based metamaterials help advance the blue economy by unlocking sustainable ocean wave energy and powering unmanned underwater vehicles.
Artimus Robotics will join the other InDEEP finalists at the final event in March to present their technology and compete for the grand prize!
