Imagine a world where robots are part of everyday life. Do you wish you had domestic help from a robot? Would you play with a pet robot? Could a robot talk to you and share your feelings? Fancy meeting your robot self face to face? All will be revealed at the Science Museum’s RobotvilleEU where a whole range of amazing robots from around the world will be on display to educate, surprise and fascinate.

RobotvilleEU, taking on board an original idea by EUNIC London (European Union National Institutes for Culture), in partnership with the European Commission-funded Cognitive Systems and Robotics Programme and the European Commission Representation in the UK, celebrates the most cutting-edge in European robot design and innovation and explores the cultural significance of robots.

Science Museum’s RobotvilleEU will play host to over 20 unique robots, many of which have just come out of European research labs and will be on show to the British public for the first time. The exhibition is divided into six zones; with a range of domestic robots, swarming robots, swimming robots, exploring robots, and humanoid robots on show. Roboticists, from the UK and Europe, will also be on hand to demonstrate their work and talk to visitors.
