The MetaSuit team developed artificial muscles. In the SURF-eDNA project, students developed a diving robot capable of collecting DNA samples. (Photograph: ETH Zurich) - Bachelor's students at ETH Zurich were given a year to turn their original ideas into finished products. ETH News presents videos of two of these projects. A robot that moves like a fish, a suit with artificial muscles, a heart-lung machine for babies, and a technique for spinning yarn out of used clothing - these are just four of the ideas that ETH Zurich Bachelor's students of Mechanical Engineering have pursued as part of focus projects over the past year. On 31 May, the teams will present their products to the public. For the SURF-eDNA project, students are developing an autonomous underwater robot that moves like a fish and does so virtually noiselessly.
