Robots are an increasingly prominent part of our daily lives. They help provide medical care, support in education and in the workplace. Although they are increasingly able to perform simple tasks and convey messages, they still lack many skills needed for effective interaction and communication. This is where the Dramaturgy for Devices project comes in. 

What is Dramaturgy for Devices?

In the interdisciplinary research project Dramaturgy for Devices, robotics and theatre work together to develop the behaviour and communication skills of robots. This project shows how the performing arts can contribute to innovative design tools and methods. Moreover, it demonstrates the value of theatre practices for technological innovation. 

Our mission

With the combined expertise of theatre practitioners and technological innovators, we aim to make human-robot interactions not only better and more effective, but also more imaginative, fun and exciting. Theatre offers a fantastic opportunity to explore and challenge future scenarios with robots.
