#Robots move with extraordinary precision. But when something starts to slip, they often realise too late.

Humans handle this effortlessly with our fingertips.

Our Nature Materials paper explores how robots could too. @eng.cam.ac.uk @aria-research.bsky.social www.nature.com/articles/s41...

This fun project has so much potential! We are now trying to use the plastic #spectrometer for an interesting computational #sensing application. Stay tuned!

🤖Our Department’s news on the ARIA robot dexterity project: we already have two PDRAs and are in the process of hiring a technician to support this exciting work. Don’t forget to apply for the third PDRA position! Deadline 29th June: jobs.cam.ac.uk/job/51600/

A story on our stress-engineered broadband #plastic #spectrometers www.science.org/doi/10.1126/.... This SMP material platform offers many exciting opportunities for future development of inexpensive, AI-enabled computational light detection systems.

With Prof Zongyin Yang, we engineered stress in polymers to make a low-cost, broadband (400-1600nm) computational #spectrometer. And it is on the Front page of @ScienceAdvances! #Spectroscopy #Photonics #AIoptics. Read it here: doi.org/10.1126/scia...

Super excited to be a part of ARIA’s #dexterous #robot program! Our #sensors will allow future robots to detect force magnitude, direction, sliding, texture, and temperature, achieving unprecedented #dexterity and precision! @cambridge-ee.bsky.social @eng.cam.ac.uk

Cool paper 👍

Congratulations to Professor Chu 👏

Inkjet‐printed reconfigurable and recyclable memristors on paper In this work, we focus on using sustainable production and additive manufacturing processes to fabricate high-yield, recyclable, multifunctional, and reconfigurable memristors on paper-based substrat...

Imagine a future where paper-based #memristor can not only processes data but be reconfigured for synaptic plasticity and neuronal leaky integrate-and-fire functionality and even #recyclable. Our #inkjet-printed memristors take a step towards sustainable electronics. @cambridge-ee.bsky.social

Great company and fantastic scientific discussions towards future indoor #VOC #sensors! Started the final stretch of the @UKRI_News #DIVINE project - a very productive meeting today!

Preparing my 2025 Day of Light outreach lectures, I bought a glass sphere and made a rainbow. But I saw some odd things, and so here’s a thread with some photos and raytracing pictures. There may well be mistakes so tell me and I'll fix them. First the basic setup showing the primary bow.

3D polycatenated architected materials Architected materials derive their properties from the geometric arrangement of their internal structural elements. Their designs rely on continuous networks of members to control the global mechanica...

This is a super cool work. Tailored mechanical response in a 3D architected material, perfect for tailored mechanical responses! www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...

Miniaturized spectral sensing with a tunable optoelectronic interface An electrically tunable compact optoelectronic interface functions as a spectral sensor, achieving material identification.

Working with Profs Sun and Cai, we developed a tunable vdW optoelectronic interface that identifies materials without complex spectral reconstruction, ideal for compact, cost-effective #2D material based #spectrometers @eng.cam.ac.uk @cambridge-ee.bsky.social

Thank you. I was a DL for 2024. Already finished my “assignment”. I went to mostly Asia and Europe.

Thank you IEEE Photonics Society for the cool plaque. Most importantly, for giving me the fantastic opportunity to talk about #spectrometers at 11 locations, 10 countries. Made many new friends, and future collaborators! If you are thinking about applying, go for it!

Celebratory cake highlighting 2024 achievements!

How about old coins? I just got back my childhood collection that included some Victorian era ones (I know, not that old!)

Would be the coolest lab in the world 🤣

First few hours into our three-day cruise to the #Sundarbans. Zoom in and look at the dense mesh of rivers and canals everywhere 😍 #bangladesh

Date juice / date palm sap, or khejur rosh (খেজুর রস ). Tried this heavenly drink after almost 20 years and it instantly transported me to my childhood! #bangladesh #winter #bangladeshi-cuisine en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Date_ju...

Just came across an African Butterfly Wing #Painting for the first time! Amazing! Exquisite! Made from #butterflywing collected from the ground 🦋

🤣🤣🤣. Worked out even better cause you don’t check 🦋 as often.

If you are in Dhaka, join me on Dec 24 for my first-ever technical talk in Bangladesh! I’ll briefly talk about my career, and then switch to miniaturising optical #spectrometers & future opportunities in this field. My final talk as a IEEE Photonics Society Distinguished Lecturer.
