Antonio Sgorbissa has been awarded the prize “Arte scienza e coscienza” at Palazzo Tursi (Genova Major House) for coordinating the international CARESSES team. The prize is for everybody that, in the UK, Sweden, France, and Japan, is working hard for designing the first culturally-competent robot ever!
We thank Claudio Melotto and his team that selected us for the 2017 edition of the prize, a wonderful “marble lotus” designed by Italian artist Luciano Massari e relized by the sculptors of Studi d’Arte Cave Michelangelo.
The article is in Italian, and includes a link to a website that describes the project and mentions the role of all CARESSES partners.
