The desire to educate and inspire was a major motivation for Tsai Feng-chun, chief executive offer of Sha Yang Ye Industrial Co. Ltd., in establishing tourism facilities at the headquarters of his firm in northern Taiwan’s Taoyuan City.

“We are moving into the age of robotics,” Tsai said. “So, our establishment aims to inform the public about the important role robots play in modern life, as well as stimulate young people’s interest in intelligent automation technologies.”

Since opening in 2013, Sha Yang Ye Robot Wonderland has successfully showcased the company’s wares while helping raise its profile as a leading original design manufacturer of high-precision microgeared motors.

The wonderland displays a range of service robots designed for companionship, education, entertainment, rescue missions and other purposes. Some of the most popular devices are puppet-like creations in the form of prominent local cultural symbols such as the Taoist deity known as the Third Prince.    [FULL  STORY]
