Visit DTU Electro and meet inspiring role models
På denne 3-timers workshop får du et kig ind i en verden, hvor robotter kan hjælpe mennesker.
Vi skal møde to kvinder, der arbejder med at udvikle robotter, der kan hjælpe med at opdage sygdomme og at træne hjernen – fx ved at gøre øvelser mere motiverende og sjove for børn og voksne.
Du skal høre om to virkelige cases og de udfordringer, som 2 unge mennesker har til dagligt, og du skal se hvordan robotter kan hjælpe dem.
Du møder Silvia og Jackii, der arbejder med hvordan hjernen fungerer, lærer og styrer vores krop og bevægelser. De vil vise os rigtige robotter, og hvordan de udvikler ideer til at opdage sygdomme og træne patienter ved hjælp af robotteknologi.
Derefter skal vi selv være kreative - og designe vores egne robotidé.
Du skal overveje:
- Hvem vi du gerne hjælpe?
- Hvilken teknologi du vil bruge for at hjælpe?
- Hvordan din robot skal designes
Silvia og Jackii fortæller og om deres vej ind i robotteknologi – og hvordan det er at arbejde med teknologi, mennesker og problemløsning.
Du behøver ikke vide noget om robotter på forhånd. Bare kom med din nysgerrighed og lyst til at finde på noget, der kan gøre en forskel.
Måske er det dig, der får idéen til fremtidens træningsrobot?
Denne event afholdes på engelsk.
In this 3-hour workshop, you’ll get a glimpse into a world where robots can help people.
You’ll meet two women who work on developing robots that can help detect diseases and train the brain – for example, by making exercises more motivating and fun for both children and adults.
You’ll hear about two real-life cases and the everyday challenges faced by two young people, and discover how robots could help them.
You’ll meet Silvia and Jackii, who work with how the brain functions, learns, and controls our bodies and movements. They’ll show us real robots and explain how they develop ideas for detecting diseases and helping patients train using robotic technology.
Then it’s our turn to get creative – and design our very own robot ideas!
You’ll need to think about:
-
Who would you like to help?
-
What technology would you use to help them?
-
How would you design your robot?
Silvia and Jackii will also share their journeys into robotics and what it’s like to work with technology, people, and problem-solving.
You don’t need to know anything about robots beforehand. Just bring your curiosity and your desire to come up with an idea that could make a difference.
Maybe you’ll be the one to come up with the idea for the training robot of the future?

Silvia Tolu
I am an Electronic Engineer with a Ph.D. in Computer Science and a Master's in Applied Linguistics, driven by a deep passion for advancing technology with real-world impact. My research goal is to develop innovative digital tools, AI solutions, and neurorobotics technologies that enhance healthcare, industry, and society.
As the Leader of the Neurorobotics Technology Laboratory (NRT-LAB) at DTU Electro, my research bridges AI, robotics, and neuroscience to tackle some of the most pressing challenges in neurodegenerative diseases. Collaborating with neuroscientists and clinicians, I work on non-invasive diagnostic tools, digital twins, and neurotechnology solutions to aid in the early detection and treatment of conditions like Parkinson’s disease.
Beyond healthcare, my work extends to industry-focused robotics, where I collaborate with AI specialists and industry leaders to develop AI-driven perception systems and energy-efficient, neuromorphic processors. My team develops bio-inspired advanced control systems for robotic applications, integrating smart vision and tactile sensors into next-generation collaborative robots.
These innovations aim to revolutionize robotics for smart manufacturing, automation, and human-robot collaboration.As an Associate Professor at DTU, I am dedicated to fostering diverse, socially responsible STEM research. I mentor the next generation of engineers and scientists, advocating for inclusivity and diversity. My dedication to empowering women in technology has been recognized in my selection as a finalist for the Nordic Women in Tech 2024 awards.
Beyond my professional work, I have a strong passion for natural language processing and computational linguistics, exploring how technology can bridge gaps in human communication. I love playing tennis and making bonsai trees. And as a mother of two, I am deeply committed to ensuring that technological advancements serve society with empathy, responsibility, and forward-thinking
