Marine Android - U-CAT Robot

Taavi Salumae, designer of the U-CAT robot and researcher at the Biorobotics Centre at the Tallinn University of Technology, tests the U-CAT robot in an aquarium using a fish net in Tallinn, Estonia. The unique feature of the U-CAT, about the size of a vacuum cleaner, is four silicon flippers inspired by streamlined sea turtle arms and legs.
