Today's robots are nothing short of astonishing. Those coming in the not-too distant future are simply revolutionary – and they are becoming eerily like us. What does it take to make a humanoid robot – a robot that can do anything we can do without the benefit of a human brain? Why are humans attempting to create humanoids in the first place? ROBOTS answers these questions and many more as it showcases the latest developments, successes and failures of robots around the world.
ROBOTS also gives viewers a sneak peak into the future at what might be possible as scientists use innovative engineering and design to make cyber characters less "humanoid" and more just plain human. Robot "actor" RoboThespian will introduce you to CHIMP, ATLAS, PR-2, Herb the Butler, ICUB and others as he takes you on an amazing tour of what's going on in robots labs around the world.
Playing at the Scienc Louis Science Center's OMNIMAX Theater. Showtimes vary. For showtimes, go to slsc.org/showtimes.
