Danish deep-tech company ATLANT 3D has signed an agreement with National University of Singapore to build a shared research facility in Singapore focused on discovering new materials using artificial intelligence.
The planned facility will be developed together with the university’s Institute for Functional Intelligent Materials and is set to operate inside a robotic laboratory. The goal is to create a “self-driving” lab, where machines and AI can run experiments with minimal human input.
ATLANT 3D will contribute its technology that allows scientists to build materials layer by layer at an extremely small scale, down to individual atoms. This makes it possible to test new material combinations faster than in traditional labs.
Researchers expect the setup to speed up work in areas such as electronics, semiconductors, and new energy materials. The project is also linked to Singapore’s national programme exploring how AI can support scientific research.
The two partners say the long-term aim is to create a model for future research labs, where AI and advanced manufacturing work together to shorten the time from idea to real-world application.
