Today, ROBOTS are everywhere we look. They're underneath us, repairing our sewers; in the skies above us, keeping us safe; and in our hospitals, performing complex surgical procedures. From amusing novelties to practical labor savers, host Daniel H. Wilson provides an insider view into the captivating world of robots. Join Daniel as he travels to Carnegie Mellon University, where he earned a Ph.D. in robotics, and learn about some of the latest technology being developed there, including an autonomous robotic vehicle called "Boss." Discover how telepresence technology has enabled robots to go where humans can't or shouldn't, and watch as the capability comes to life through robots that can detect bombs, perform delicate surgeries, and locate disaster victims. Finally, watch as Daniel becomes half-man, half-robot with the help of a device that acts as an exoskeleton on the human body, and which is now helping patients who have suffered trauma or have a congenital disease learn to walk again.
