Fabrica AI is reinventing how robots are developed. Currently novel robots take 5-20 years. We are building a design automation platform to bring it down to a month, and have already demonstrated significant progress by developing tile grouting robots in record time. Robotics simulation and reinforcement learning has been advancing a lot making it 1000x cheaper to train robots compared to 5 years ago, and as Jensen Huang said at Nvidia GTC 2024, "the ChatGPT moment for robotics may be just around the corner." A couple other companies are building on the same paradigm shift but we are the only ones using it to automate hardware design, not just software.

Building robots and a design automation platform together brings great synergy - the platform helps us develop robots faster than anyone else and the robots allow us to gather data and do experiments at scale. Data gathering can be done through partnerships with other robotics companies, but doing experiments is crucial for grounding the platform in reality and ensuring its usefulness. The grouting robots are already deploying daily at construction sites and bringing value to clients. We are currently negotiating sales worth around 500k USD. With manufacturing cost multiple times lower than companies using a traditional robotic arm, our robots have an ROI in weeks. Our robot is also small and simple to use, operating from a single button without the need to upload floorplans or do any complex setup. Soon we would be expanding into other simple and valuable robots for the construction industry.

We’ve raised over 2.5m USD from Hoxton Ventures, Credo Ventures, our Professor from Cambridge University, Woh Hup, and the owner of BHCC (listed construction company). We’ve 2500sqft of space in Singapore where we have over 20 team members, and 1200sqft of space in Czechia where we have our software team.

Jakub Suchanek (CEO) has an engineering degree from the University of Cambridge and experience working on self-driving cars at Wayve and machine learning at Granta Innovation and Wacker. He is a worldwide winner of NASA SpaceApps and has won bronze medals in International Olympiads in Informatics and Physics.

Ronald Luc (CTO) earned a degree in Math and Computer Science from Masaryk University, where he was a teaching assistant, and supervised several deep learning theses. He has years of industry experience in both machine learning and self driving cars. With Jakub he won TechFest Munich, one of the EU’s top hackathons; and represented Czechia at the International Olympiad in Informatics.

Keefe Wayne Teo (COO & CFO), a University of Cambridge engineering graduate, served as president of Hackbridge.io, promoting entrepreneurship in tech. He has 100+ citations in research journals and four papers on sustainable energy. He previously worked at Entrepreneur First and has business development experience from other companies.

About TUMCREATE

TUMCREATE is a multidisciplinary research platform of the Technical University Munich (TUM) at the Singapore Campus for Research Excellence and Technological Enterprise (CREATE). We are joining forces with universities, public agencies, and industry for the advancement of future technologies.

Our large-scale Food Science ‘Proteins4Singapore’ program is funded by Singapore’s National Research Foundation (NRF). The Technical University Munich (TUM) and Nanyang Technological University (NTU) join forces with the Singapore Institute of Technology (SIT) and A*STAR’s Singapore Institute of Food and Biotechnology Innovation (SIFBI) to research plant-based proteins.

Please visit www.tum-create.edu.sg for more information about TUMCREATE.

Project Title:

Screening of food-grade enzymes for the generation of functional hydrolysates from alternative protein sources.

Abstract:

The project Proteins4Singapore aims to address Singapore's aspiration to utilize protein-rich raw materials from indoor cultivation (soybeans and microalgae) to produce alternative food products.

In this 6-month Master’s thesis project, the focus will be on obtaining protein fractions from soybean and microalgae biomass and the generation of functional peptides. General tools for protein analysis such as SDS-PAGE and photometric will be used for characterization of the protein fractions. Further, the fractions will undergo proteolysis to generate hydrolysates using a selection of food-grad enzymes.

Different reaction conditions will be compared by characterising the generated peptides and the degree of protein hydrolysis. Promising conditions may be scaled in a bioreactor system. Further, the flavour profiles of the different hydrolysates will be analysed to evaluate their suitability for the formulation in functional foods.

Applied Methods:

High Pressure Homogenization, Microfiltration, Protein Hydrolysis, photometry, SDS PAGE, Chromatography.

Job Responsibilities:

Laboratory Work and Experimentation:

• Conduct hands-on experiments related to microalgae processing, protein extraction, and separation techniques.
• Collaborate with the research team to optimize protocols and methodologies.
• Assist in developing and refining scalable processes for protein extraction.
• Investigate factors affecting efficiency, yield, and cost-effectiveness.

Data Collection and Analysis:

• Analyse results using appropriate statistical tools and software.
• Summarize findings from scientific literature related to microalgae processing and protein extraction.
• Contribute insights from your research to project reports and your master’s thesis.

Collaboration and Communication:
