Entertainment industry and arts

Robots have a long history with entertainment and arts where animatronics have been used for decades for cinematographic shootings, theater, amusement parks (Disney's audio-animatronic) and performing arts. We believe that soft robots could be a good support for art. As an example, last year we collaborated with the artist Dewi Brunet in the creation of animated origami structures (see https://dewiorigami.com/).
