Contact #electrification happens almost always when two materials touch each other. ❓So does it also occur when insect feet 🪲 touch the surface of plant leaves🌱? We believe yes, here are our just published measurements: doi.org/10.1007/978-3-… Bioinspired Soft Robotics lab IIT Barbara Mazzolai


Association of ERC Grantees IIT @MostlyPhysics Hochschulrektorenkonferenz (HRK) And an amazing talk on biology-inspired robots by Barbara Mazzolai, Association of ERC Grantees (including robotic octopus arm for gripping tasks in confined spaces and many other incredible things). And discussion with Marc Cieslak. Watch the replay from 2’42’00’: youtube.com/watch?v=9OKeED…
