Here is a clever robot that can play an acoustic guitar in a more expressive manner. The ERG is designed to play a commercial guitar with various techniques, including strumming, picking and overtones. It has a robotic arm for strumming and plucking as well as a 12-motor module for fret shifting. The below video shows the robot strumming with a pop music pattern, playing a reggae, and a lot more.
