Vijay Kumar- Robots That Fly And Cooperate

      The movie is about how using the basic system of airplanes, we can create robots that fly. It uses four rotors to fly and it can make a map of the area. They can fly together as a group and can work together to pick up objects and make objects using pieces. It has a camera built into it so it see the environment it is in and can travel from point A to point B. It can go around and through certain objects. In the video, a man throws a hoop into the air and the robot goes through perfectly. This invention relates to information technology because Vijay Kumar used a camera and computers to download memory into it. He was able to install a GPS in it and that is amazing. The best thing about the robots are that they made a music video and they played musical instruments. It is truly amazing! You should watch it!

  2. I really liked watching this video because it was completely interesting to watch how these robots can be created and do all these crazy things! These robots are basically one of the best creations I have ever seen or heard of! I truly found this video completely and utterly fascinating. I think that your post was correct, except for spelling environment in the fourth sentence and that the link should be at the end of the post. Good job Komal!

  3. Robots these days can almost do everything. This was a really interesting video to watch. It is like a human GPS that can tell you where to go. Seeing robots work and cooperate together is amazing. I bet one day they are going to make a robot that can do your homework for you.
