Vive La Robot Révolution At OMSI This Spring, Summer

PORTLAND, OR – From the Oregon Museum of Science & Industry: Opening March 17 at The Oregon Museum of Science and Industry (OMSI), Robot Revolution, supported by Google.org, explores how robots will ultimately be our companions and colleagues, changing how we play, live and work together.

The exhibit comes to life with a collection of cutting-edge robots from some of the most innovative global robotics companies 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 asset.

“Robotics is a fascinating area of science today because scientists and engineers are constantly pushing the boundaries in their efforts to create new possibilities,” said Nancy Stueber, president and CEO of OMSI. “In advocating for informed action, we offer our guests information so they can make their own evidence-based choices, which is why I’m so excited about this opportunity for people to interact with such a wide range of robots. I hope our guests come away from this experience with a deeper understanding of how robots are becoming an integral part of our world.”
