Alongside faithful reproductions of Leonardian machines, other masterpieces of Italian engineering will be displayed, including the first combustion engine by the Tuscans scientists Barsanti and Matteucci, various models of automatic machines and robots, the variable pitch propeller and the Vespa Elettrica, along with the multimedia creations of the Sant’Anna High School Perceptive Robotics Laboratory. Entitled Dalle Macchine di Leonardo all’Industria 4.0 ( From Leonardo’s machines to Industry 4.0), the exhibit tackles four topics that were dear to Leonardo the engineer and inventor: flight, locomotion, mechanical precision and plumbing.
