Researchers at the National Robotarium, hosted by Heriot-Watt University in Edinburgh, have secured £586,000 to develop 3D laser beams with changeable shapes. The innovation is set to transform the manufacturing industry, making it easier and cheaper to produce products that require highly precise manufacturing, such as medical equipment and mobile devices. Funding from the EPSRC, part of UK Research and Innovation, will support the R&D of the lasers for industrial applications, accelerating the commercialisation of the technology for the benefit of businesses and the wider UK economy.
