In a frame grab from video, robots walk across the floor of the University of Michigan's Ford Motor Co. Robotics Building, March 12, 2021 in Ann Arbor, Mich. (AP Photo/Carlos Osorio)ANN ARBOR, Mich. – Digit marches on two legs across the floor of the University of Michigan’s Ford Motor Co. Robotics Building, while Mini-Cheetah — staccato-like — does the same on four and the yellow-legged Cassie steps deliberately side-to-side. Three floors house classrooms and research labs for robots that fly, walk, roll and augment the human body. On the top floor are Ford researchers and engineers and the automaker's first robotics and mobility research lab on a university campus. Researchers working together in the building are designing robots for people, said Alec Gallimore, dean of Engineering at the University of Michigan.

The technology, called iGYM, allows people with mobility disabilities and their non-disabled peers to exercise together in a fun environment. In one game — a cross between soccer and air hockey — as players enter the court, a virtual circle appears around them and that circle moves with them as they traverse the arena. “It is fun to hit a ball around,” said Darren, who smiled widely throughout several games with his brother. The technology is a one-of-a-kind, said iGYM creator Roland Graf, a professor at the University of Michigan Stamps School of Art & Design and a media artist, designer and inventor. iGYM exists only as a research prototype, and Graf and his team are looking for partners to help bring their project to the market.
