Japan to open its first robot museum in October

060630_bot_museum.jpg

Japan’s first bot museum is set to open this October in a refurbished auto showroom in Nagoya, of all places.

Once cleansed of cars and sales staff (“Nice robot here, one owner only!”), the site will become home to cast-off bots from the 2005 Aichi Expo and their industrial brethren. The 2,600-square-meter museum will also feature a shop and a cafe set in a “near future” environment where humans and robots coexist peacefully. The entry fee hasn’t been fixed yet.
