The museum features eight themed exhibition halls showcasing 7,461 genuine specimens, 338 realistic models, and 194 exhibits, creating a narrative from the cosmos to local habitats. Among these, two lifelike interactive dinosaurs developed by Yujian Technology stood out as the main attraction, marking the first public display of large bionic intelligent dinosaurs in China. The significance of this opening lies in the museum's extensive collection, which includes fossils, plant and animal specimens, and geological minerals, making it the most comprehensive natural history museum in South China. Visitors can explore the exhibits that span billions of years of life history. The two bionic dinosaurs, a Tyrannosaurus rex and a Triceratops, broke the silence of the prehistoric world with their dynamic interactions, captivating audiences and sparking discussions about the advancements in robotics and technology. Looking ahead, the museum's bionic dinosaurs represent a significant leap in the integration of robotics into public cultural venues. The interactive capabilities of these dinosaurs, which respond to their environment, set them apart from traditional static exhibits. No further timeline was disclosed at the time of publication.
