Orkney Science Festival presents ‘Robots After Dark’ – 8 September
The National Robotarium team are hosting an evening event as part of this year’s Orkney Science Festival.
‘Robots After Dark’, taking place at King Street Halls in Kirkwall on 8 September, will offer attendees a unique insight into how the UK’s leading centre for robotics and AI are advancing robotic and autonomous technologies to improve our lives, work and health.
The event will include demos of the latest robotic technologies, ranging from humanoids and AI-driven assistive robotics to legged and industrial robots, and how they’re being applied to support sectors, including healthcare, energy and agriculture.
There will also be an opportunity to speak to The National Robotarium team about recent developments, including the launch of the International Blue Economy Robotarium, being led by scientists at Heriot-Watt University in Orkney and industry partners from leading renewable and marine technology companies.
Tickets range from £8-£10 and are available to book on the Orkney International Science Festival website.
An interview with advanced humanoid robot Ameca will be streamed as part of the event
