A Korean-made robot made its debut as an orchestra conductor before a sell-out crowd in Seoul, Friday, wowing the audience with a flawless performance in place of a human maestro.
Named "EveR 6", the five-foot-ten-inch-tall (1.8m) robot guided more than 60 musicians of the National Orchestra of Korea who were playing traditional Korean instruments.
The robot successfully guided the compositions, both independently and in collaboration with a human maestro who was standing next to it for about half an hour, entertaining the more than 950 audience members who had packed the National Theater of Korea.
The robot was showered with applause when it first appeared from below the stage on a lift and turned to face the audience, bowing in greeting.
