We've learned that robots are capable of making beautiful paintings, but they are also incredibly talented when it comes to making music.
In fact, researchers have been experimenting with robots playing music from as early as 1985, and the results have been pretty outstanding.
From robots recording albums to aiding humans in transforming their music, here are 8 robots exhibiting musical prowess:
1985: This robot pianist was built by the Universidad Autónoma de Puebla in Mexico and is capable of reading musical scores and playing the piano.
Called the Don Cuco El Guapo, the robot has camera for eyes that allow it to read music.
2005: Toyota created a robot capable of changing the internal pressure in its mouth so it can play the trumpet.
The robot has agility in its arm and hands that allow it to play just like a human! Toyota also made other robots, like a tuba player and drummer, to create a robot marching band.
2008: Greg Locke, a New Zealand-based machine designer, created this robot rock band called The Trons.
The Trons consist of Wiggy, the robot on lead guitar; Ham, the robot on rhythm guitar; Swamp, the drummer; and keyboard player Fifi, the Telegraph reported. They have recorded songs such as "Sister Robot" and "The Trons Theme."
