2024
RobotX Innovation Day 2024 took place for the first time in the machine laboratory hall - the new RobotX hall!
Some exhibitors from RobotX Innovation Day 2024
The robot platform LEVA is designed to traverse rugged terrain while autonomously loading and carrying up to 100kg. The goal is to fully automate jobs including heavy lifting on construction sides, intralogistics, or farms.
Team NomadZ aims to enable robots to play football entirely autonomously, striving to replicate the dynamics of a human football match. Our ongoing development of strategies and algorithms keeps us at the edge of robotic soccer technology. The goal of Intelligent Control Systems group research is to make high performance control and estimation available for safety-critical systems that act in varying and uncertain environments

Gravis Robotics is a startup that turns heavy construction machines into intelligent and autonomous robots. Our unique combination of learning-based automation and augmented remote control lets one operator safely conduct a fleet of machines in a gamified environment. Our team has over a decade of academic experience honing the cutting edge of large-scale robotics, and is rapidly growing to bring that expertise into a trillion dollar industry through active deployments with market leaders.
aithon.ethz.ch (ALESSANDRO DELLA BELLA) www.upcircle.ai Tethys Robotics automates inspection in rough waters. To overcome the limitations of professional divers and existing robotic aids, Tethys Robotics is developing the world's first lightweight underwater drone that can cope with fast-flowing waters and poor visibility, while enabling actual autonomy in all waters.
magnecko is a magnetic quadrupedal climbing robot which aims to navigate complex three-dimensional structures to perform inspection tasks.

The Somnomat Casa is an innovative sensor-equipped rocking bed designed for sleep studies and interventions in home environments. Developed at the SMS Lab (ETH Zurich), this autonomous robotic bed moves along the longitudinal axis, mimicking the gentle swaying motion parents use to soothe their babies to sleep. Its compact design and the integrated safety features allow for easy integration into home settings, enabling investigations beyond the lab environment and offering potential benefits for a broad range of patients. (mail@stefanschneller.ch) www.floatingrobotics.com ETH Zurich Spin-off incon.ai develops an AR construction guidance platform for the construction and manufacturing industry with the mission of intuitively and accurately bringing all task-relevant information from 3D models to the real world through precise AR overlays, thereby making 2D plans obsolete. www.incon.ai Our omnidirectional aerial robot, OMAV, can decouple its positional and rotational movement, allowing it to not only turn on the spot but also interact with the environment. This makes it a promising tool for different industrial applications. We will showcase some of its unique capabilities in a short demo flight! LAYERED is an innovative system introducing autonomous mobile robotic surface treatment to construction sites. Aiming for efficient and safer applications, it reduces material waste and reliance on scarce skilled labor In order to accomplish tasks such as landscaping, aggregation of objects, autonomous forestry or earth moving tasks, HEAP needs to be able to navigate autonomously. To this end, we are developing algorithms for global and local navigation in rough terrain. We leverage the fact that our excavator is a walking excavator which gives it the ability to cope with uneven terrain, gaps and large steps. The robotic revolution to save disaster victims and inspect confined spaces! RoBoa goes where no other robots, drones, or humans can go!
ARC uses technologies ranging from robotics and computer vision to automation to improve and maximize the impact of plastic removal from rivers.
