there had been speculation. that the report might be delayed because of a metropolitan police request. the us has warned that the build—up of russian troops on the ukraine border is the largest since the cold war. earlier, the russian president vladimir putin told french president emmanuel macron that he had no plans for an offensive, but that nato had failed to address russia's main demands. doubts have emerged over the timing of the positive covid test which the tennis player novak djokovic used to enter australia. the serial number appears to be out of sequence with a sample of test results, obtained by the bbc, which had been taken in serbia around the same time. now on bbc news, it's time for click. this week, swinging satellites!

1:34 am
what is nuts — sounds completely nuts. well, what is nuts is _ sounds completely nuts. well, what is nuts is rockets. - what is nuts is rockets. rockets are combustion chambers that burn cryogenic propellants at temperatures that are greater than the surface of the sun. they have thousands of components that are made out of the most exotic materials known to man and are on the verge of blowing a part of any possible minute. i think spinlaunch is more realistic than a rocket. as the day has gone on i started to believe it. by getting the projectile above the atmosphere, you've done away with the need for most of your fuel and away with the need for most of yourfuel and most away with the need for most of your fuel and most of your weight. without air resistance, a much smaller rocket can then get the satellite up to 17,000 miles an hourand get the satellite up to 17,000 miles an hour and into orbit. spinlaunch gets you most of the way there and then there is a small rockets that get you all the way there.— small rockets that get you all| the way there._ the the way there. right, ok. the vehicle is _ the way there. right, ok. the vehicle is passively _ the way there. right, ok. the vehicle is passively stable - the way there. right, ok. the vehicle is passively stable so i vehicle is passively stable so you can see there is a heavy

1:41 am
do whatever it needs to do and onceit do whatever it needs to do and once it counts down to zero, and alert will be sent to a local traffic warden to come and give them a ticket. which could also help keep law and order. in this spot, video analytics are being used to see if anybody is climbing up on this sign or doing any other sort of vandalism. there will be an alert triggered and then a speaker will tell them that they need to get down. it's also looking at how much rubbish there is around so if there is a fair bit to clean up, somebody will be told to come and do so. and this is just the plant. the start. next, the tracking of the huge, sprawling buildings here and how they use their energy. but at the heart of all of this is data. and the data is being shared through what is called a digital twin. shared through what is called a digital twin-— digital twin. what we are buildin: digital twin. what we are building is _ digital twin. what we are building is essentially i digital twin. what we are building is essentially a i building is essentially a digital brain for a city, enabling all of the sensors placed around the city monitoring everything from air—quality to traffic,
1:42 am
pedestrian movements, security to all be brought into a single system and processed using artificial intelligence. you will be able to go anywhere in the city eventually and see things like how many spaces are available in a car park or how many, you know, what's electricity are being used by vehicle charges and things —— watts of electricity. we have sg, watts of electricity. we have 5g, artificial intelligence or ai 5g, artificial intelligence or a! and another one is ai and another one is blockchain, another one is digital twins and we are going to use the internet of things, and it means everything around us is becoming smart and connected and we are able to tap into that, in a very safe and secure way. 50 tap into that, in a very safe and secure way.— tap into that, in a very safe and secure way. so while las veuas and secure way. so while las vegas benefits _ and secure way. so while las vegas benefits from - and secure way. so while las vegas benefits from a - and secure way. so while las vegas benefits from a bit i and secure way. so while las vegas benefits from a bit ofl vegas benefits from a bit of smarting up now, hope is that this could easily be replicated in other cities. hello, welcome to this week in tech. it was the week that google was sued

finally, drones to shoo away pesky pigeons. researchers in switzerland have been using an autonomous system that spots the roof invading birds and then sends them a drone to harmlessly chase them away. while flocks can gather four hours, the ai while flocks can gather four hours, the a! system cut loitering down to just a couple of minutes. —— for hours. it seems ai is eagle eyed. there is all kinds of tech being woven into football to improve both the players and the beautiful game itself such as video assistant referee and goal line technology. but what about us? the fans of the sport? the sunday leaders, the ones who want to go pro one day or play every week until we can't run any more. well... now there is accurate to for us too. a few companies who provide that of the out kit to the pros have now created consumer versions of their
1:45 am
product. first up we've got steps sports whose vests are worn by players underneath there should stop in a house black pods which are trackers that collect different data points on the wearer. and now they are given the public a chance to use it too. they have gotten into business with arsenal and now consumers will be wearing a slightly different vest, but the black pods that they will be wearing are exactly the same ones that the gunners use... but here is where it gets a little bit more interesting. i've got the cat on and i'm out on the pitch and i'm ready. but then... i'm in a lot of pain, so i have had to sit out for now. but then we've got our producer over there doing it for us so we will be looking at his data. 0h doing it for us so we will be looking at his data. oh and m0! glad he did. looking at his data. oh and moi glad he did-— glad he did. whereas omar? i hoe glad he did. whereas omar? i hope that's — glad he did. whereas omar? i

1:48 am
still has a number of drills to test the user, be it their reactions, fitness and accuracy, but there's also a very football specific drill, heading. something that can hurt in real life. so to make it painful, they've made a drill for it in vr. 0k, it painful, they've made a drill for it in vr. ok, that's enough. what? 0h. that was weird. beheading itself really accurate, but not having the pressure of the ball on your headis pressure of the ball on your head is kind of strange. i could get used to it but i'm curious even though you are not actually hitting the ball you are moving your head around quite a bit and your brain inside might bouncing around. we can see players heading may be up to 20 balls depending on their position, but that's going to be multiplied significantly during training. heading the ball is i think four times more impactful than
1:49 am
not so obviously that level of safety is increased by using vr and removing actual impact with the ball itself copy and to be fair, even the kids were enjoying it. fair, even the kids were enjoying it— fair, even the kids were en'o in: it. . ., ., enjoying it. that was amazing, that was really _ enjoying it. that was amazing, that was really good. - enjoying it. that was amazing, that was really good. which i enjoying it. that was amazing, that was really good. which is | that was really good. which is a aood that was really good. which is a good thing. _ that was really good. which is a good thing, as _ that was really good. which is a good thing, as heading i that was really good. which is a good thing, as heading is i a good thing, as heading is something that is banned in games for children under 12 in the uk. the fa have also made new measures to reduce the number of headings and training sessions to lower the risk of long—term damage. so maybe they just need to switch to heading virtual balls instead. next up we have wearable trackers that go inside of these moulds that fit inside your boots. these are used by pro clubs such as fulham but now the company has come up with their consumer version. you put the trackers inside the mould and then slip them onto your boots. connect them onto your boots. connect them to the app via bluetooth and then play away. as you are playing they are supposed to pick up physical metrics similar to statsports but also
1:50 am
