Robot DJ

Posted 28 May 2001 at 16:02 UTC by steve Share This

Chris Csikszentmihalyi has constructed a robotic DJ system that can beat-juggle and execute a variety of scratch techniques. Chris calls the system DJ I, Robot . Being able to spin a record at up to 800 RPM, it doesn't quite sound like a human DJ, though it has begun a successful career playing at nightclubs and will begin touring this summer. DJ I, Robot has also competed at several DJ competitions including Blackkat's Beat Mechanix competition in NY. Wired News is carrying a short article about Csikszentmihalyi and his robot that includes an audio file showing off the robots skills.
