A robot named Teotronico，designed by Matteo Suzzi from Italy，is really good at playing the piano - but then he does have 19 fingers.
Robotic hand technology is evolving rapidly and Teotronico's extra digits enable him to play the piano faster than any human could.
He can also sing and accompany himself on the drum and judge how well his musicalability is going down with the punters. Teotronico is the only robot in the world able to do all those things at the same time.
He also has video cameras installed in his eyes which allow him to "see" and interact with those around him.
Matteo, from Imola, Italy said Teotronica cost over £3000 and took over four years to create.
The 34-year-old said: 'I've always had a passion for robots and robotics. I was really excited when I discovered you could create an independent robot that could play any tune or composition.
Having 19 fingers gives the robot a better execution speed, making him faster than a human. His left hand covers the lower notes, the right hand covers the melodic line and he has an extra finger on the left hand.
He sings recorded files in his system and uses speech recognition and facial expressions to interact with his audience.
"He's performed at a number of private parties and is a hit with the guests. We're hoping he can revolutionise the music industry，" said Matteo.




据英国《每日邮报》10月17日报道， 意大利马提欧-苏茲设计出一款名为特奥特劳尼克的机器人，有19根手指，弹钢琴非常出色。

机械手的制作技术正迅速发展，而特奥特劳尼克附加的手指使他比任何人弹琴的速度都要快。

他还能边敲鼓边唱歌，并能自我判断唱的有多好。特奥特劳尼克是世界上唯一能同时完成所有这些事情的机器人。


这款机器人还装有摄像机眼睛，便于"观看"以及和周围人互动。
来自意大利伊莫拉的马提欧说，制造特奥特劳尼克用了4年时间，花费超过3000英镑。

这位34岁的发明家说；"我对机制造机器人一直怀有极大地热情。当我发现能制造出一个能弹奏任何曲子的自主机器人时，别提有多兴奋了。"

拥有19根手指使机器人的弹奏速度加快，超过普通人许多。他左手弹伴奏，右手弹奏主旋律，左手比右手多出一根指头。

机器人利用系统中的记录文件来唱歌，还能通过语音识别和面部表情和听众互动。

马提欧说："他已经在多个私人派对上表演过了，让不少宾客大开眼界。我们希望他能为音乐产业带来彻底的变革。"
