Shadow puppetry theater

Shadow puppetry combines traditional and modern technology, using programmed robotic arms to make shadow puppetry movements more precise and complex. By projecting classic plays through light sources, visitors can enjoy a unique experience of visual and cultural integration, revitalizing ancient art.

The unit is designed for unsupervised public use: controls are recessed or shielded, moving parts are enclosed, and the interface is operable by a child of about six with no instruction. Where a screen is used, the language can be switched without changing the hardware, and the content can be replaced on site.

Shadow puppetry, also known as "shadow puppetry" or "lantern shadow puppetry", is a folk drama that uses animal skins or cardboard to create character silhouettes for storytelling. During the performance, the artists manipulate the actors behind a white screen while telling stories to popular local melodies, accompanied by percussion and string instruments, creating a strong local atmosphere. Its popularity is extremely wide, and various shadow puppetry plays are formed due to the different vocal styles performed in different regions.
