Robotics & Artificial Intelligence - Robo Dogs, Robo Spiders - Modern Robotic Engineering based on Animals

ways robotic engineers are mimicking the natural world. BionicWheelBot and the BionicFlyingFox have been developed to navigate difficult terrain, like their biological counterparts. Robots like the canine-inspired models produced by Boston Dynamic are already being used in hazardous environments to reduce the need for humans to be exposed to risk. The episode also shows how robots are covering new ground in space exploration, with smart autonomous vehicles destined for Mars, given greater capability than ever before. And on the third block, we visit some of the environments, such as offshore rigs and factories, where robots are being deployed in a range of jobs, including as exoskeletons for human workers, to reduce injuries and enhance endurance.
