Description
A South Korean-made robot makes its debut as an orchestra conductor before a sell-out crowd in Seoul. Named "EveR 6", the five-foot-ten-inch-tall (1.8m) robot guides more than 60 musicians of the National Orchestra of Korea who are playing traditional Korean instruments. "I came here worried whether this robot could pull this off without a glitch," Kim Ji-min, a 19-year-old college student majoring in music, tells AFP. "But I found it to be in great harmony with the musicians... It felt like a whole new world for me." IMAGES AND SOUNDBITES
