DESCRIPTION:[]Join the IEEE Toronto Instrumentation & Measurement – Robot
 ics & Automation Joint Chapter for a talk on the Materials As Machines\, p
 resented by Dr. Irina Garces from Carleton University.\n\nWednesday\, Augu
 st 21\, 2024 @ 4:30 – 5:30 PM\n\nAbstract: The Materials as Machines Lab
  specializes in developing systems and devices geared toward producing mat
 erial systems that can adapt or be tailored to variable operating conditio
 ns. Our focus lies in the development of smart material systems applicable
  across a spectrum of fields\, including deployable actuators\, manipulato
 rs\, soft robotics\, wearables\, and biomedical applications. Leveraging a
 dditive manufacturing\, these innovative material systems offer practical\
 , cost-effective solutions for engineering challenges. By integrating sens
 ors into multifunctional actuating materials\, we create dynamic structure
 s and assemblies capable of self-sensing and adaptation.\n\nIn this presen
 tation\, Dr. Garces will present their ongoing research on self-sensing ac
 tuation\, tailored additive manufacturing\, and explore the transformative
  potential of this technology in prosthetics\, and examine its diverse app
 lications across industries.\n\nSpeaker(s): Irina Garces\, Ph.D.\n\nVirtua
