Previously on RoboCafé we welcomed Max Spahn, PhD candidate Mobile Manipulation in Dynamic Environments, and a prolific member of the AirLab team. Mobile manipulation is a hot topic in the R&D community. Robots that can physically intervene their environment are being deployed in many areas, such as space exploration, military operation and healthcare. But industry uptake has so far been sluggish, despite surging demand for intelligent and flexible automation since the pandemic.
