SciShow: 5 of the Most Important Inventions in Robotics

Teacher or professor: SciShow
Subject: Science
Content of the Lesson: A lot of robots are developed to physically replicate our actions and behavior, like a bipedal, balanced walk, a large range of motion, and the ability to perceive and interact with the environment. But, maybe not to your surprise, that's a lot more difficult to replicate than some viral robot videos might make you think.
