Made out of Lego pieces, it can play Ludwig van Beethoven’s famous Für Elise piano composition. I spoke to one of the authors, Matěj Štětka, who told me that the entire idea started after the famous American pay television network HBO commissioned the university to come up with a robot that would play the tune to the next season of television show Westworlds. encr@radio.cz (Cesky Rozhlas)webmaster@radio.cz (CRo Webmaster) https://english.radio.cz/sites/default/files/images/3ee709dd9e13a57102a02ca1879fb309.jpg?timestamp=1617967492 https://english.radio.cz/czech-technical-university-students-design-robot-plays-beethovens-fur-elise-8713685 Radio Prague International Radio Prague International radio.prague.int@gmail.com clean 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
