The Balancing Cube, www.cube.ethz.ch The Balancing Cube can balance on any of its edges or corners. It owes this ability to six mechanisms on each inner face that rotate in concert and achieve equilibrium for the overall system. Each of the mechanisms is an autonomous unit with sensors, a computer, a motor, and a battery on board. The six mechanism share information and coordinate themselves over a network of their computers. by Sebastian Trimpe, Matt Donovan, Raffaello D'Andrea, video by Geo Robson The Balancing...
Ball juggling experiments with quadrotors in the ETH Flying Machine Arena By Mark Müller, Sergei Lupashin and Raffaello D'Andrea www.flyingmachinearena.org IDSC, ETH Zürich, Switzerland Common question This is not human-piloted (please see the overview vid). The vehicles/ball are tracked by an overhead motion capture system and controlled by a pair of computers. Quadrocopter Ball...
We are looking for ways to make interaction with our vehicles natural and intuitive. With this in mind we implemented a demo for fast, dynamic interaction with a quadrotor vehicle using the Kinect in the Flying Machine Arena. This demo is the result of a ETH Zurich Bachelor Thesis by Armin Ambühl, supervised by Sergei Lupashin and Raffaello D'Andrea More Info: www.FlyingMachineArena.org Interaction with...

How far are we on the way to brain-like computing? Rodney Douglas is head of the Institute of Neuroinformatics (INI) at the Federal Institute of Technology in Zurich, one of the leading European research centres on neuroinformatics. Neuroinformatics investigates the technology aspect of brains in order to understand how it actually computes. The INI team has various promising research projects running, one is the Neuromorphic VLSI vision sensors, also called Rodney Douglas -...

ibioseminars.org Viruses are extremely simple and small yet they are responsible for many of the worlds diseases. A virus particle consists of only a genome, a protein coat or capsid, and sometimes a surrounding lipid envelope. To replicate, a virus must successfully enter a host cell, uncoat its genome, and appropriate the host cell machinery to replicate its genome and produce viral proteins. Part 1 of this lecture will discuss ways in which viruses bind to the surface of host cells. Simian Virus 40 which binds to specific cell surface glycolipids, and Human Papilloma Virus-16 which binds to sites on filoipodia, are examples of different binding mechanisms. Attachment of viruses to the plasma membrane activates cell signaling resulting in endocytosis of the viral particles. This lecture is appropriate for upper level undergraduate and graduate classes studying virology or endocytosis. See more at www.ibioseminars.org Ari Helenius (ETH...

ibioseminars.org Part 3 focuses on a single virus, the Vaccinia virus, as a model for cell binding, signaling and endocytosis. Fluorescently labeled Vaccinia viruses bind to and surf along host cell filopodia. Helenius lab members noticed that when Vaccinia, unlike other viruses, reached the surface of the cell body it caused the plasma membrane to form blebs. Further experiments showed that the virus tricks the cell into thinking it is apoptotic debris. This induces blebbing and subsequent uptake of the virus by macropinocytosis. Additionally, automated high throughput siRNA screening was used to screen a large number of infected cells for host genes required for Vaccinia virus uptake. Analysis of the genes identified allowed host factors and processes critical to viral infection to be identified. Expansion of this technique may provide a new source of information on pathogen-host interactions. See more at www.ibioseminars.org Ari Helenius (ETH...

A short video which introduces the Distributed Flight Array (DFA) which is being developed at ETH Zurich. This multi-rotor vehicle consists of autonomous single-rotor modules that are able to drive, dock with its peers, and fly in a coordinated fashion. These modules are organized as distributed computational units with minimal sensory input. Experimental demonstrations in docking, driving, and flying have proven its feasibility as a research platform for investigating techniques in distributed estimation and control. The work shown here was completed by the 2008/9 AYIM class (www.andyetitmoves.org For more information, visit: www.idsc.ethz.ch The Distributed...
