When the sun makes its comeback after a cold and uncomfortable winter, it’s finally time for great outdoor events again. Luckily, we were invited to some of them again this year or organized our own barbecue evenings!
Mechanical Engineering Campus Spring Festival
📅 16th of May 2025
📍 Campus Mechanical Engineering at Leibniz University Hannover
On this sunny Friday, we were able to exhibit on the grounds of the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering and present our robots to curious students. Good music, refreshing drinks, delicious food and other entertainment provided the right atmosphere. We had a great time as a team and are already looking forward to next year!
neu/wagen Meetup: Humanoid robotics in companies
📅 21st of May 2025
📍 Institute for Mechatronic Systems (IMES) at Leibniz University Hannover
The very next week, we went to another exciting event in the Hannover Region. After we had already attended the last Robotics Meetup in September 2024 on current robotics research at Leibniz University and the resulting transfer potential to industry, this time everything revolved around the question of how humanoid robots are changing the world of work and how we take employees with us.
After a short introduction, together with a meet & greet, visitors were able to listen to two presentations by Prof. Dr.-Ing. Thomas Seel (IMES) and Simon Alexander Wagner (Mittelstand Digitalzentrum Hannover) on the possible applications and ethical dimensions of humanoid robotics. A Q&A session with the two rounded off the first part of the event, which then continued with a practical demonstration of the Humanoid robot G1, including a tour of the test field.
Finally, there was time for a cozy snack, which offered enough space for one or two interesting conversations. All in all, it was a very successful event and we look forward to attending again!
Team barbecue evening
📅 28th of May 2025
📍 luhbots lab
The month was rounded off with a small team barbecue after the team meeting, where we welcomed a surprising number of new people. The atmosphere was perfect for getting to know each other and discussing potential areas of work. Optimal onboarding!
