Zurich | 26/06/2009 - 04/10/2009 Robots From Motion to Emotion

Exhibition looking at the relationship between reality and fiction today and the emotional effect of robots, which is generated by characteristics of form and functional capabilities. On show are about 200 exhibits ranging from historical automata to robots in the household, in industry, in medicine and in the military to toy robots, or, in other words, everything that is to be understood under the term robots, what they look like, where they are used for and what they should be able to accomplish in the future. The exhibition raises the question of why robots are accepted or rejected and what characteristics determine the relationship of people to machines.
