The exhibition is divided into sections such as robotics, computing, steam, gas, automotive, automated navigation, automation, programming, telecommunication, encryption, geodesy, mapping, astronomy, metering instruments, automation, hydraulic and wind power utilization, , tooth drive and chain drive, and so on. and proves with absolute validity and credibility the fact that many sciences and techniques, which resemble today or at least the modern era, were born in ancient Greece. There has been a tremendous development of technology and a peak in the 3rd and 2nd century BC, a gradual degradation and loss of this technology at the time of the Romans and a gradual recovery of this technology after 1,500 years.
In the front of the exhibition, two screens show a video about Greece and its culture, and a second one on Ancient Olympia. The Singapore Science Museum has organized a huge display of the exhibition, even advertising the sponsorship of tourist airfares for Greece to the lucky visitors of the exhibition.
