For 25 hours over 4 days, over 2,000 people lined up at the booth to get their robotic drawn portraits. Over 1,000 of these sketches became a tile for building the NetApp logo, creating a SketchBot Mosaic.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"background-color: #f71992; color: #ffffff; padding: 6px;\" data-start=\"1678\" data-end=\"1712\"><b>Taking SketchBots a Step Further<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">SketchBots are smart robots that draw people\u2019s faces with amazing speed and detail. At the NetApp booth, three SketchBots were working every day throughout the event. In total, they drew over 2,000 sketches during the event!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Each person who got sketched also got a sticker of their drawing to place on a big board to help build the SketchBot Mosaic. By the end of the event, over 1,000 portraits were used to complete the mosaic.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"background-color: #f71992; color: #ffffff; padding: 6px;\" data-start=\"1678\" data-end=\"1712\"><b>Not Just a Sketch Mosaic<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Not only were people a part of the mosaic but they even got to take home their own sketched portrait on a 4&#215;6\u201d branded takeaway. They even got a digital version of their sketch in an email to share via social channels, and to remind them of NetApp\u2019s cool booth.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The booth was full of energy and smiles as people watched the robots work and added their sketches to the growing wall, some even took videos of the robot in action for their social channels.&nbsp; It was one of the most popular spots at the whole event.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"background-color: #f71992; color: #ffffff; padding: 6px;\" data-start=\"1678\" data-end=\"1712\"><b>Why a SketchBot Mosaic is So Special<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">NetApp showed how SketchBot Mosaics can turn a simple booth into something fun, creative, and unforgettable. It brought people together, gave them something to talk about, and let them take part in a shared project.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">With SketchBots drawing portraits and SketchBot Mosaics bringing everyone\u2019s sketches together, NetApp\u2019s booth was more than just a tech display, it was a community experience.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Want to see how SketchBots and SketchBot Mosaics work? <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.picturemosaics.com\/event\/sketch\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Learn More<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><script>\njQuery(document).ready(function ($) {\n    var listItems = $('.bxslider a');\n    console.log(listItems.length);\n    var loc = window.location.href;\n    var url = loc.split(\"\/\");\n    var lastPart = url[url.length - 2];\n    var page = url[url.length - 3];\n    if ((lastPart != 'blog')&& (page != 'page')) {\n      listItems.each(function(index, as) {\n         as.href = as.getElementsByTagName(\"img\")[0].src;\n      });\n    }\n});\n<\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":21,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"ngg_post_thumbnail":0,"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2}},"categories":[398,382,387],"tags":[452,451,384,388,407],"class_list":["post-9154","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-live-sketch-mosaic","category-sketch-mosaic","category-sketchbot-mosaics","tag-cisco-live","tag-netapp","tag-sketch-mosaics","tag-sketchbot-mosaics","tag-sketchbots"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v25.9 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>SketchBot Mosaic Powers NetApp\u2019s Interactive Booth at Cisco Live<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"NetApp\u2019s SketchBot Mosaic turned robot-drawn portraits into a giant artwork - fun, creative, and the hit of Cisco Live!
