Juke Bot Robot

If you are looking for industrial-grade techno music for your next party event, look no further than the Kuka Robotics-based Juke Bot, a five foot tall (unextended) mixmaster.

The Juke Bot is a pair of Kuka industrial robots; each is surrounded by a set of platters (you know, vinyl LPs). The two bots act independently, deftly grasping an LP, and then bringing it to a platform with a phonograph needle. Delicately, the robot presses the LP against the needle and begins to rotate it forward and backward, creating a unique performance sound.
