Colossal Robotic Hand

The Colossal Robotic Hand is quite a sight: a 30-foot-tall, stainless steel robotic hand constructed from more than 500 individual, custom designed, stainless steel triangles. It is impressive in a stationary position, but with a remote joystick mimicking the robot hand, visitors can easily operate the Hand, making each of its giant fingers move, much like their own. This exhibit, in our Science & Art Park, is a powerful, interactive icon of creativity, engineering, and design.

The Colossal Robotic Hand is made possible by a generous donation from Pam and Michael Reese.
