ABB Robotics First Robot Painted Art Car
ABB Robotics partnered with two world-renowned artists to create the first robot-painted art car in the world using the company’s PixelPaint technology. This allowed the team to recreate 8-year-old art prodigy Advait Kolarkar’s swirling, monochromatic design as well as Dubai-based digital design collective Illusorr’s tri-color geometrical patterns, without human intervention.



ABB’s IRB 5500 paint robots come equipped with 1,000 nozzles, which helped them complete the highly complex artworks in less than 30 minutes. Typically, multi-colored car painting is a laborious and costly process that involves multiple stages of masking and unmasking, but PixelPaint technology provides detailed, colorful, and exact replication of just about any design. We’ve seen AI restoring damaged artworks, but imagine what it can do on a car.
