Interact with robotic sharks
There are two awesome tech additions at Dubai Aquarium & Underwater Zoo. Already home to the world’s first interactive digital shark cage, the aquarium now welcomes three interactive robotic sharks, and the world’s first 80-metre long transparent LED screen.
The sophisticated 3D technology behind the robotic sharks allows them to approach and interact with the public, whilst a high definition 15.4” touch screen allows guests to easily interact with the robots, as they act as guides offering valuable information to visitors, sharing insights into the aquarium and assisting in the purchasing of tickets. The robots can also interact with one another, adding to the entertainment and excitement of the visitors.
The transparent LED screen runs the length of the main aquarium tank and offers a ‘sneak-peak’ of all of the wonders on show within Dubai Aquarium & Underwater Zoo, including otters, King Croc, Shark Week and much more. Visit www.thedubaiaquarium.com or call 04-4485200.
