Mikroniek December 2025: AI and Generative Design

The December issue of Mikroniek is devoted to AI and generative design. The cover article presents a novel approach to automating innovation through AI-driven synthesis for high-tech system design.


Other theme articles feature physics-informed surrogate modelling, the approximation of model-predictive controllers using neural networks, and 6D-pose estimation for bin picking. Also in this issue, reports of three high-profile events: DSPE Conference on Precision Mechatronics, Precision Fair, and DSPE Knowledge Day Opto-Mechanics. Click here for a first impression.
