00:00and creating robots that act and behave just like animals.
00:04When I visited Festo, I went swimming with their penguins.
00:08These are autonomous, robotic penguins.
00:11They knew where I was in the pool, didn't bump into me or anything,
00:15or the sides of the pool, and we had a pretty cool afternoon together.
00:18Introduce the smart bird.
00:21Festo say that this is the closest they've ever been to creating a robot,
00:25so similar to the real thing.
00:28It's got a carbon fibre frame, so it's exceptionally lightweight.
00:32It weighs just 450 grams.
00:37Wow.
00:38Its design is based on the herring gull.
00:41It has a wingspan of 2 metres by 2 metres.
00:45Whoa!
