The visual identity of the Regional Center of Excellence for Robotics Technologies (CRTA) has been recognized for innovation by the prestigious Art Directors Club of New York (ADC Awards), the longest-running international awards for advertising and design. CRTA is a robotics laboratory operating within the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering and Naval Architecture at the University of Zagreb, and its visual identity was created with the assistance of artificial intelligence and the Bruketa&Žinić&Grey agency. Students wrote the name of the laboratory, "CRTA," by hand, and their handwriting served as input data for the artificial intelligence. By processing this information, numerous visual elements were generated, forming the basis for the visual identity.

Happy holidays from all the residents of the Regional Center of Excellence for Robotics Technology - CRTA!
Students used their handwriting to write the name of the institution, which served as input information for artificial intelligence. Through the processing of this information, various visual data were generated, forming the basis of the visual identity. The agency Bruketa&Žinić&Grey designed the entire process and implemented it in collaboration with our students. To see how this "interspecies" collaboration looked like, please watch the video presentation.
