Robots in Prague

Here you can watch video recordings on robot stories which are connected with Prague, Czech research & education on robots, plus Czech robot competitions and makers.

One of the basic concepts of Cafe Neu Romance is to spread the word about the Czech stories which are connected with robots and robotics to a broader international audience, and hopefully also inspire the education system to use the materials below.
