Abstract
This paper describes the design and development of an entertainment robotic workstation installed at the natural science museum of Lerici, Italy. Two commercial 8-legged robots have been adopted and modified in order to fit the requirements of the specific application. The robots, which should mimic the behaviour of a trilobite, prehistoric animal typical of the Lerici zone, can work in both autonomous and teleoperated modes
