Robotlab Robot Portrait ArtistA robot offers an unusual service in the museum. Pen in hand, he draws a human portrait. A drawing board sits in front of him, and a chair stands ready for his model.

Once a visitor is seated, the robot begins to work. The machine-artist fastens his camera eye on the model’s face, and with striking hand movements, he draws the person’s portrait.The resulting image is individual and unpredictable. With both technical ability and the capability to recognize the characteristics of a human face, the robot hand forms his own style. Watch ‘autoportait’ video below:
