AI, Robotics and Art

By touching the Extraceleste with your hand, the statue will feel your heartbeat and activate sensors that will change the intensity of its lighting. This is a sensor system designed by Nature 4.0, the newco founded by scientist and Nobel Prize winner Roberto Valentini. The robotic sculpture gives poems to the audience, generated by AI thanks to the collaboration with Luca Andrea Marazzini. Come to WMF to experience it for yourself.

From Dish to Poetic Robot
