Cat Royale is an art project created by Blast Theory, the creative ambassadors of TAS Hub, exploring the concept of trustworthy autonomous systems. It features a community of cats living in a specially designed "cat utopia" and a robot arm that interacts with them. The project presents not only the design of an autonomous system, but also reflects on the involvement of diverse stakeholders and the importance of responsibility in its development.
Cat Royale is an artist-led exploration of trustworthy autonomous systems (TAS) created by the TAS Hub's creative ambassadors Blast Theory. A small community of cats inhabits a purpose built 'cat utopia' at the centre of which a robot arm tries to enrich their lives by playing with them. We initially present the design of Cat Royale as an autonomous system, but then refect on how diverse human (and animal) stakeholders were required to enable its development and live operation when adopting an approach shaped by responsible research and innovation (RRI). In so doing, we unpack how Cat Royale speaks to three core issues of autonomy, trustworthiness and responsibility relevant to the TAS community more broadly.
