Rethinking Care: The Future of Nursing Homes @CarbonRadio

Uploaded June 2024 | Updated September 2026, 2 weeks ago

Aging with dignity is important, and as a society, we can ensure that the elderly are able to maintain a high quality of life in modern nursing homes. The care the elderly receive in nursing homes is reflective of our values as a society, and therefore we should make sure that we address issues related to abuse and neglect in nursing homes.

$Engineers Spent Years Studying Bats—Heres What They Found #robotics #biomimicry #science #engineering #bats In this video, I talk to Rolf Müller about his work developing bioinspired robots. Rolf Müller is the Raymond E. and Shirley B. Lynn Professor of Mechanical Engineering and Director of the Bioinspired Science and Technology Center at Virginia Tech. Muellers group seeks to develop robots that can mimic the superior sensing abilities and mobility of bats that are able to hunt in dense natural environments. Bats have the most complicated flight apparatus across all biological and engineered systems that fly with about 20 discrete degrees of freedom in each wing. Similarly to the complexity of the wings, bats have about 20 muscles on each ear that deform the shape of the pinna as it diffracts the incoming biosonar echoes. Biomimetic reproductions are an important tools for understanding these complex mechanical systems for mobility and sensing.$
