Tech in the Home, City and Space

Join us for a fascinating research talk on cybersecurity, forensic analysis, and the rise of deepfakes! We’ll explore real-world cases of digital deception and the techniques used to uncover them. See how experts detect manipulated media and protect online security. Don’t miss this eye-opening look at the future of the digital world!

Imagine construction sites run by robot dogs, flying drones, and smart machines that can ‘see’ and learn from their surroundings.
In this talk, we’ll explore how robotics, automation, and digital twins are revolutionising how we build — making sites safer, faster, and smarter.
Get a peek into the future of construction!

Did you know that some of the most exciting events in the universe, like exploding stars, can happen in just seconds? To catch these very fast phenomena in space, we need a telescope that is fast, smart, and always watching. Enter the New Robotic Telescope, a project from the astrophysics department at LJMU! Building on the success of the Liverpool Telescope, a fully robotic 2-metre telescope on the island of La Palma, in the Canary Islands, the New Robotic Telescope will be double the size of the Liverpool Telescope, with a 4-metre mirror, making it the world’s fastest-reacting telescope of its kind. When something extraordinary happens in space, it can move to the target in just 30 seconds! Join us to discover how this revolutionary telescope will help us catch the universe in action.
