The Robotic Pianist

Looking like a cross between Bender from Futurama and Keith Richards, Teotronico is the name of a piano-playing robot designed by Italian inventor Matteo Suzzi.
"Anybody here from out of tow...KILL. KILL. KILL."
Unsettling looks aside, Teotronico (we like to call him Teo) is the fastest piano player in the world; partly because he has 19 fingers, allowing him to play almost any song, and flip multiple birds to hecklers.
Teo can also sing along with what he’s playing by using pre-recorded voice files from the original recordings. Video cameras in his eyes allow him to interact with the audience as well, making him the perfect autonomous lounge singer, as long as Will Smith doesn’t show up.
