South Korea to build Robot City

Posted by Erin, the RobotGrrl on Wednesday, August 29th, 2007

South Korea, like Japan, is basically a place in which we can see what our future will be like. Their relatively small sizes allow for newer technologies to be implemented faster, so stuff that’s there now will hit our shores in a few years. If South Korea can really been seen as a look into our future, it looks like our future will be full of a lot of robots.

Robotic Future City

That’s because South Korea is planning to build “Robot Land,” an industrial city built specifically for the robotics industry. It’ll have all sorts of facilities for the research, development, and production of robots, as well as things like exhibition halls and even a stadium for robot-on-robot competitions. The $530 million project should get underway sometime in 2009, which means we should see our own robot city here in the States around 2013.
