Research Assistant – PhD student, Biorobotics Laboratory, EPFL
Short Bio
Simon Hauser received his BSc/MSc in Mechanical Engineering from the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Zurich (ETHZ) where his studies were built around bio-inspired robotics.
He joined the Biorobotics Laboratory at EPFL in December 2014. There he mainly focuses on modular robotics and is part of the Roombots project. His further interests also include evolutionary robotics and soft robotics.
