Learn about the skills robots possess that mimic and often surpass human capabilities in the new OMSI exhibit ‘Robot Revolution’ opening Saturday, March 17 and running through Sept. 7. Robot Revolution OMSI exhibit brings coolest robots ever A new exhibit at the Oregon Museum of Science and Industry (OMSI) some of the most innova- tive robots from all over the world. ‘Robot Revolution,’ opening Saturday, March 17, explores how robots will ultimately be our com- panions and colleagues of the fu- ture, changing how we play, live and work together. The exhibit comes to life with a collection of cutting-edge ro- bots from global robotics compa- nies and universities. Guests will have the opportunity to interact with robots that are rarely seen by the public, as they step into a visionary world where robots are not just a curiosity, but a vital as- set. OMSI officials say guests will be awed by the breakthroughs and capabilities of these machines. The exhibit features four areas that delve into various aspects of robotics and offer specific hands- on activities with amazing robots, as well as dynamic videos. You can see a robot mimic your own facial expressions, for exam- ple, with its advanced facial-cod- ing technology; or get charmed by a furry baby seal therapy ro- bot, which has sensors that can respond to your touch; or try your hand at a surgical training simula- tion to see what it’s like to perform a robotic surgery. There is also a chance to create a ‘bot for yourself by assembling the basic components of a robot using Cubelets and then seeing what you can get it to do! ‘Robot Revolution’ runs through Sept. 3. Tickets, which in- clude general museum admission, are $19.75 for adults, $13.50 for youth (ages 3-13), and $15.75 for seniors (ages 63+). For more information, visit www.omsi.edu.
