Dubai’s Museum of the Future has added a new member to its staff – Ameca, an AI-powered humanoid robot, which will interact with visitors at the futuristic museum.
Ameca, is known to be the “most advanced” humanoid robot in the world. Despite its human-like face and body, the robot is also able to make facial expressions.
Ameca is powered to interact with visitors at the museum, Tomorrow Today exhibition, by answering their queries, providing directions and also greeting them. She even has a “sense of humour,” her manufacturer, Engineered Arts said.
Tomorrow Today is one of the museum’s experiences, which explores the contrasting ways in which technology can shape the future by contributing to solving societal and environmental challenges, the Museum of the Future said.
“It features more than 50 exhibits, including prototypes and current products focusing on five areas: waste management, environment, food security, agriculture, and city planning.”
