Development of functional materials and meta-materials for the Bio-robotic and robotic industries

Newly engineered functional materials and meta-materials can provide major advantages in the development of Bio-robotic systems. Our functional materials group strives to achieve groundbreaking materials qualities such as very low weight while retaining strength, superior locomotion stability, programmable visibility, improved durability, cost reduction and other unique qualities that are essential for Bio-robotic systems and many other cross-industry products.

our vision

What do we develop?

Hybrid plastics: Innovative hybrid plastic compounds that would be substantially stronger than current known plastics but not heavier so that the usage of such compounds for the fabrication of elements that sustain mechanical forces will require less material and will result in a reduction of weight and cost.

Meta materials: Meta materials provide macro functionality emerging from micro structural material design, we design meta functional plastics that provide desired kinetic functions such as shock absorbance and micro stabilization, with minimal overhead of energy consumption.

Target users

Who can use our resources and how?

We will provide samples of our smart materials to our collaborators, subject to our collaboration framework, so that they will be able to explore the functional benefits of our materials to their components in development and subject to our commercial framework, to other organizations and clients across various industries.

Robotic and Bio-robotic Industry

Robotic and Bio-robotic systems are in-demand of new functional materials that would improve strength/weight ratio and will provide advanced rheological, mechanical and chemical attributes and other advanced functions that will enable the development of new superior systems.

Cars Industry

The cars industry is constantly looking for new materials that will decrease weight, improve durability, allow for energy storage and many other attributes, we believe our functional materials will be relevant and innovative in this field.

Avionics Industry

The avionics industry is looking for advanced materials that will provide improved strength/weight ratio, this will result a decrease in fuel consumption and would directly affect profitability.

Space industry

The space industry is a fast growing industry which use advanced materials in many modules of operations, exposed to extreme hostile conditions and require to provide various qualities.
We believe that our advanced functional materials, mainly the 3D printed sub class, will be of great benefit for various space modules implementations.
