Engineers design alternating-pressure mattress for bedsore prevention

Mechanical engineering researchers at the UCLA Samueli School of Engineering have designed a mattress that helps prevent bedsores by alternating pressure across the body and, at times, increasing peak pressure rather than reducing it to restore blood flow.

Climate-optimized construction with robots

A straight wall is not necessarily a climate-optimized wall. Depending on the wall's exposure to sun and shade, there is an ideal angle for individual bricks. The calculations come from a digital design configurator—and in the future, a robot will help craftsmen to position the bricks precisely. In a workshop with apprentice bricklayers, this human-machine cooperation in construction has been tested under real-world conditions by the Technical University of Munich (TUM) and the Munich-Ebersberg Construction Guild.
