Visitors to the Museum of the Future’s Tomorrow Today exhibition will be greeted by  Ameca, the humanoid who can make the most human-like facial expressions of any robot.

The robot features a human-like face and a robotic body, shaped like a human. Ameca will interact with visitors, directing them and answering their questions. She is capable of making facial expressions and even has a sense of humour.

Museum Of The Future – Tomorrow Today Experience

Tomorrow Today is one of the museum’s experiences. It explores the contrasting ways in which technology can shape the future by contributing to solving societal and environmental challenges. It features more than 50 exhibits, including prototypes and current products focusing on five areas: waste management, environment, food security, agriculture, and city planning.
