The Institute of Mechanical Genius at EPFL is at the forefront of innovative research in mechanical engineering. Researchers have developed a groundbreaking system for four-arm laparoscopic surgery, controlled via haptic foot interfaces. They also bring Leonardo da Vinci's designs to life through student projects, exploring and building ingenious machines based on his centuries-old drawings. Additionally, the institute is involved in modeling the Swiss energy system for carbon neutrality and energy independence by 2050, aiming to reduce energy system costs significantly. With a focus on reconfigurable robotics, the institute showcases versatile robots that adapt to their environment, reflecting the director's visionary approach.
