William Xie, a first-year PhD student in computer science, is teaching a robot to reason how gently it should grasp previously unknown objects by using large language models (LLMs). 

Nikolaus Correll, associate professor in the Department of Computer Science, helped create the basis for a new rippling 3D display that can bring touch to digital experiences.

The University Libraries and ��ƷSM����ӰƬ Student Government are pleased to recognize Nikolaus Correll and Alan Mickelson as recipients of the 2022 Open Educator Award at the ��ƷSM����ӰƬ. Both associate professors were selected to receive this award for using open educational practices in their teaching.

The CU team was formed around the CU spinoff company Robotics Materials Inc., which was founded by Associate Professor Nikolaus Correll.

Robotics researcher advocates for job growth by "building on our existing strengths, remaining a leader in manufacturing efficiency and doing the hard work to further improve our educational and social systems to cope with a changing workforce."

The new technology can be worn as an adjustable sleeve on the user’s arm or leg or sewn into everything from clothing and backpack straps to dog leashes, allowing “eyes-free” control of a tablet, phone or media player that doesn’t require any precise button touching. The new prototype joins popular wearable high-tech devices ranging from smart watches and fitness bands to headsets and smart gloves.

Prosthetics with a realistic sense of touch. Bridges that detect and repair their own damage. Vehicles with camouflaging capabilities. Advances in materials science, distributed algorithms and manufacturing processes are bringing all of these

��ƷSM����ӰƬ Assistant Professor Nikolaus Correll likes to think in multiples. If one robot can accomplish a singular task, think how much more could be accomplished if you had hundreds of them.
