- Description
- MIT engineers have built a robotic optics lab that builds, runs, and dismantles an optics experiment, on demand. The setup centers on a robotic arm that physically arranges mirrors, lenses, and other optical components that are each set in custom-designed, QR-encoded housings. The robot arranges each component in precise alignments to direct and focus a beam of light (red laser). The autonomous system could speed up testing of high-tech materials, from solar cells and sensors to video displays and quantum technologies. This video is sped up 2x.

She emphasized that HEALS’s role, and the research it enables, is increasingly central to advancing health and life sciences at MIT and beyond.
HEALS Faculty Director Angela N. Koehler followed with a call for cross-disciplinary collaboration, noting that the diverse mix of attendees — researchers, students, clinicians, industry leaders, and partners — is intentional and central to the HEALS mission. As noted, these challenges “will not be solved by any one of us alone” but require exactly this kind of collective effort.

He argues that many of tomorrow’s breakthroughs already exist today in “unreasonable” form, but are often overlooked or underfunded because they fall outside conventional thinking.
He also calls on scientists to “choose science” by championing the full breadth of the field, and introduces the concept of “poly-intelligence,” where human, machine, and natural intelligence converge to transform health science.
