  • The four projects presented by ATLAS at DIS'22
    Researchers from ATLAS Institute's Unstable Design, THING, Living Matter and Superhuman Computing labs presented four papers, including three that received ���Honorable Mention��� awards, at the ACM conference on Designing Interactive Systems (DIS '22).
  • An arm with illustrations added of different emotions, symbolizing the emotional effect of touch.
    Prior psychology findings show humans can communicate distinct emotions solely through touch. In this award-winning work presented at DIS'22, THING Lab��researchers hypothesize that similar effects might also be apply to robotic touch.��
  • An origami butterfly
    SIGGRAPH sat down with Purnendu, a PhD student in the ATLAS Institute and a researcher at Meta Reality Labs, to talk about his team���s SIGGRAPH 2021 Labs project, ���Electriflow: Augmenting Books With Tangible Animation Using Soft Electrohydraulic Actuators.��� The team's actuator technology strives to augment animation within physical books.

    In virtual reality, when you reach out and try to touch a visible surface, it normally isn't there. Using a swarm of Rubik's Cube-sized, shape-changing robots, the illusion becomes physical.
  • a paper butterfly that is lifting off the page
    Imagine opening up a book of nature photos only to see a kaleidoscope of graceful butterflies flutter out from the page. Such fanciful storybooks might soon be possible thanks to the work of a team of designers and engineers at CU 勒貊勛圖���s ATLAS Institute.
