Artebots

Our collection—your toolbox. If you could build robots out of all the amazing artefacts at the Canada Science and Technology Museum, what would you create?

The Canada Science and Technology Museum, one of the three museums of Ingenium—Canada’s Museums of Science and Innovation, is proud to announce its newest mobile game: Artebots. The first app of its kind for the museum, Artebots engages users with the museum’s collection in a fun and exciting way not only in the exhibitions, but beyond the walls of the Museum. Through the magic of augmented reality, users can collect, test, explore, and create whatever they can imagine – using artefacts from the museum’s extensive collection. Ages 8 and up.

You are on an important mission: defeat the evil Bot Crusher, who is threatening to destroy the museum’s collection! Customize your robot using actual artefacts, then test your creation in different augmented reality challenges. From mountain climbing to space exploration, adventure awaits.
