HitchBOT is 3 1/2 feet tall and weighs fifteen pounds. It's made out of household and salvage items and traversed Canada by hitchhiking, going from Halifax, Nova Scotia to Victoria, British Columbia! Oh yeah, hitchBOT speaks with a female voice but, in reality, is gender neutral.

The creator of HitchBOT is a collaborative, interdisciplinary team of scholars from the fields of visual arts, engineering, computer science, and communication. To learn more about hitchBOT and its journey, click here.
