The Emerging Technologies technical sessions at the Institution of Professional Engineers Convention to be held next month in Auckland, covers robotic devices to manipulate long bone fractures, nanotechnology, Smart Optical Materials to assist with the spectacles of the future, and new technologies which help babies with breathing difficulties.

The overall theme of the convention is to encourage engineers to take more of a leadership role developing New Zealand’s economy and national wealth. Plus further technical sessions include Engineering the Built Environment, and Engineering Materials.
