Dancing with Robots

Festival of the Mind 2016

15 Sep 2016 13:00

Sheffield Robotics study the way humans work in order to make better robots. Visitors to the Futurecade exhibition during Festival of the Mind had the chance to interact with Nao, our dancing robot.

Watch to see how this project helps to inform our research into 'social robots’ - robots that one day may make our lives easier.

This project was part of Festival of the Mind 2016.
