A*STAR @ SWITCH 2026

Get up close with physical wafers, devices and demonstrators spanning advanced packaging, silicon photonics, flat optics, PiezoMEMS, RF GaN, power electronics, IC design and quantum — alongside technologies translating these capabilities into new applications.

See A*STAR technology coordinate robots and equipment through a common platform; turn 3D scans into robot toolpaths with no-code software; train humanoid robots using synthetic data; explore advanced surface treatments and an additively manufactured marine propeller developed using AI-assisted design.

See how fresh cancer tissue can be imaged in about 10 minutes, why a new microstent is being built specifically for angle-closure glaucoma, and how a patient’s own cancer cells could help rank treatment options. From intraoperative imaging to implants and personalised treatment selection, each starts with a very different unmet clinical need.

Watch ATOMIC connect AI reasoning, automated experiments and single-cell analysis in a continuous learning loop. See how an A*STAR platform can screen and produce multispecific antibodies in the same CHO cells, and how an A*STAR spin-off is translating biomedical research into applications for age-related skin fragility.

See DeepCycleEco recover high-purity chemical building blocks even from coloured and lower-quality PET; FluidCore specialty chemicals targeting semiconductors, batteries and data-centre cooling; and A*STAR’s work with Amogy taking ammonia-to-hydrogen technology from catalyst optimisation towards larger-scale deployment.

See AI automatically surface high-collision-risk near misses from vessel traffic. And find out how more accurate vessel-arrival predictions could support Just-in-Time port operations. These maritime-AI technologies were developed to support safer, more efficient port operations.

See CareCam turn a short walk captured on one camera into digital gait biomarkers. See AMILI’s drinkable microbiome-restoration therapy. Try skincare samples emerging from ImpacFat’s fish stem-cell platform. Test whether a voice is genuine or AI-generated with Deepfaic’s locally deployed detector. And inspect Mencast Marine’s additively manufactured propeller, backed by AI-assisted design.
