Sleight Robotics Wants a Robot to Perform Magic

Field notes

The proposed performance system uses a robot, physical magic props, staging, dialogue, visuals, sound, and timed routines rather than presenting robotics as a technical demonstration alone. Sleight describes both a larger self-contained robotic theater and a compact single-arm configuration intended to reduce installation and maintenance demands. The core system has reportedly been demonstrated, while enclosure, safety, serviceability, and repeatable daily operation remain part of the development work.
