do without effort in everyday life then you notice how much processing power humans are capable of on a daily basis with. the first step is getting the conscious see and to recognize what it sees that small complex than i had ever imagined here we see a short range radar sensor it recognizes anything metallic cars crash barriers large and small vehicles what about children. it recognizes them too but not nearly as well it's especially good for metal without a. step to accurately in type putting the data and using it to recognize complex traffic situations will the child jump out onto the street or not i can't imagine how a machine could handle that one no matter how many examples of fed into it software . on the other hand humans are responsible for an awful lot of accidents it would

be better to let those drive who make fewer mistakes whether humans will machines the verdict on that is still out. that. bowling is a real highlight here even though the bowling balls are virtual that doesn't seem to bother the nursing home residents computer games are a welcome new addition here. many of the seniors in the home suffer from alzheimer's dementia or parkinson's these games were developed especially for them they're designed to stimulate the brain encourage movement and distract patients from their suffering. as well as what's wrong with it makes me laugh it's funny and it gets me moving that does me a lot of good and i like to ride motorcycles. you can see there are lots of games to choose from we try to cover every type of movement. this force guys meet in the

city and the hamburg start up came up with the idea to start using computer games in nursing homes the games are all controlled by movement alone doctors and psychologists help develop them yes. yes. yes. now it's my turn. ok you have invited me there's no. you guys it's the history of insulins. that run from me as the call me that so it's the combination of motor activity with neural psychological cognitive and memory functions that creates an optimal mix for therapy and prevention and creating that mix has only become possible recently the technology needed to run multiple

processes such as canning the room and mapping each person's frame in order to analyze movement has been available for several years but not long ago it was much more expensive and complicated. the company founders have been passionate gamers since childhood they want people who play their computer games to enjoy life again technology is helping to make that possible. what about life in the year twenty fifty the world's population could hit ten billion will that be enough to wait bad scale industrial farms are already the trend but they've been driving many traditional families out of business it's no wonder when you look at how low growth rate prices are in germany. farms lost their charm. today german farms are agriculture factories with milking sheds that are almost

completely automated. and satellite guided harvesters that cost half a million euros. many farmers have tossed in the towel in the last ten years more than eight hundred farms have shut down each month the result fewer small farms and larger farms requiring government subsidies in two thousand and sixteen german farmers receive subsidies totaling nearly six and a half billion euros in the e.u. farm subsidies came to around fifty five billion euros forty percent of the entire budget most countries worldwide subsidize their agricultural industries and this sector is very productive it feeds eighty two million people in germany seven hundred forty million in europe and it could supply nearly seven and a half billion people worldwide more than ever before. no where in europe are groceries as affordable as in germany at discount grocery stores a kilo of pork costs about two euro's as much as a couple of shoelaces

a leader of milk goes for forty two year old cents a kilo of potatoes is sixty nine cents an egg just eight cents. let's stay with eggs for a moment they're produced by hens roosters are not profitable they have less fat than their female counterparts so the male chicks are separated at birth gassed and shredded is sufficient but damaging to the farmer's image in germany agri business is coming under increasingly strong criticism that it treats animals like a mere commodity. so far as moving towards mass production the moderns a still pretty dismal and they're also up against the public backlash that's why some it's heading to social media to get across that point including the owners of a dairy farm in old and not suffering germany's famous port city of. i know that beneath me down i need also an old woman that one. armed with

a camera and need to look aston is on a mission to improve the image of farmers. she's fed up with farming's bad reputation. let me tell my sister what bothers me the most is the way that farmers are just categorically vilified people think all we farmers do is pollute the environment and torture animals. and me to shoot videos on her dairy farm and uploads them to the internet platform my cooch you she wants people to see that animals a contented. seventy five there i'm a needle from the oldenburg a minstrel and today i'm going to show you the milking process. just like the cows are a bit jumpy because of all the flies that might be. her husband michael

takes over the work on the farm while she makes her videos. well the problem is i'd say the problem is that we're a dying breed a lot of farms are closing down and because there are fewer farms and german villages the general public is becoming increasingly distanced from the farming industry so among consumers there is less awareness of the issues facing farmers. i need to grew up on a dairy farm she's been running her own farm together with her husband for over ten years now they have three hundred twenty cows and one hundred five hectares of land much of it is least the land cost the newcastle's forty thousand euros again. the cows are kept in a shed all year long and given special concentrated feed to many this is intensive livestock farming. business here and i love it you want the

land leases are expensive in this region we do intensive farming and produce around eleven thousand liters of milk a year to put that in context in germany the average dairy farm produces eighty five hundred liters a year we wouldn't be able to afford the land if our yield were lower. the army sliced bread. animal rights activists want to see more free grazing life stock in the farming industry only a few of anita's cows are allowed to graze freely the grass here isn't sufficiently lush the high yield cals but they look asons don't see themselves as the farming industry they're a family business they have one employee and one trainee milk prices have occasionally fallen to less than thirty cents police or how are they supposed to turn a profit animal welfare and environmental protection are expensive and sometimes the look asons make barely two thousand euros a month. i'd have been in

today i was visiting the camps and i'll show you how they feed from the nipple bucket. here's a camp who is eagerly drinking. the videos show there's nothing very romantic about breeding life stark. anytus cows are artificially inseminated. she buys the genetic material of twenty five bulls and carefully matches it to each cow. the farmer every time i yield camels. besides producing a lot of milk they don't have horns animal rights groups consider this an ethical. but any to think impurely practical terms for ones can be dangerous.

if you get butted in the chest with a sharp morn you'll end up with a bruise at the very least if not an injury that could swell up and become fatal. as young. some of anita lucas and videos have attracted over one million views it goes to show that people obviously are interested in knowing where their food comes from. the challenges facing families with band hard core school general secretary of the german farmers federation it's a lovely group in your members i believe range from huge agribusinesses to small organic market garden as how do you represent such a varied member base when they have such very demands actually we are we are representing almost a million family members in the rural areas in germany and this is this is quite a challenge and there's many differences between the farms to address in different markets and to have different needs but in the political. work there's

a lot of things these farms have in common how do you explain eight cents an egg is that german efficiency or or is it a sad state of affairs for these families that are just getting by german market indeed has an issue with the value of food and this is this is quite a problem in the public perception of the value of food as still a lot of work to be done but anyway you have the consumer price and you have to farm gate prices and of course for for the farmers and the farmers families to find good price is is is that what counts and there are many countries in europe and also in the rest of the world where we have very high consumer prices and we have the same farm gate prices so. many stages of processing and marketing in between which take out added value and that's the point you have to look at back to

the efficiency of and the changing look of farms how they're operated these factory farms how do we balance efficiency with health. well there's a direct correlation between efficiency and tell if you have efficient farm which takes good care of any mill health of food food safety and stuff like this so this also contributes to to to that point but you're talking about factory farms in what is what is effect to refinancing is realisation i guess yeah ok but this is this is a very general statement if we look at the farms in europe or all or in germany to ninety nine percent work at a scale which is. more and the craft and industrial scale so we have a lot of distortion and a lot of war of words in the discussion about agriculture so industry of the zation

this is. this is more campaigning vocabulary it doesn't describe reality as these farms there do move towards getting bigger and bigger and producing on a mass scale doesn't the possibility of a health scare rise exponentially i mean we hear about health scares every day every month. look at the health scares we have seen in germany in the recent fifteen or twenty years most of them did not came from the cut your production but it came from the processing chain. and from the supply chain so you have to address this very carefully and of course it's and it's an fundamental obligation which is not negotiated to produce safe food and health and safety is not related to farm size but it's related to the way you organize your production. to produce food with the commitment with stand as we

have in europe and in germany and that's the crucial point and of course again thank you very much for coming in today. where of all the insects gone over the past couple decades up to eighty percent of insect populations in germany have disappeared it may save the front windscreen of your car a lot of mess but it doesn't bode well for our future. this common brimstone is living in the best possible location the safe leafy garden of butterfly research or us out in the fields the likelihood of a premature death would be far higher of the one hundred twenty five species of butterfly documented here in the state of saxony sixteen have disappeared along with many other insects that's very bad news. alice. everything we eat stats a major source of vitamins it depends on insects as pollinators in the story. so

without pollinators no food. on the wells there are foods that don't depend on pollination like meat grains and rice but they aren't full of vitamins just. in some parts of germany insect populations have declined by up to eighty percent and that means food for many birds and other insectivores has grown scarce. you know if it's off into farming is becoming very intensive. habitats have disappeared as. fertilizers are used that are bad for insects. and then there are the pesticides the aim is to squeeze as much yield as possible out of the soil the head of the regional farmers association tells me agriculture in germany is focused on maximizing efficiency and dismisses concerns over insects as well as the pollutes and in my opinion it's rubbish the numbers of many species are always going up and

down that's true of insects and it's also true of mammals if those variations and populations are used to target certain groups of people in certain professions i see that as shabby treatment if you will. because she had. to find out what scientists think about the issue i went to the hamlet center for environmental research and leipzig to talk to biologist you know as if set up he's on the un's intergovernmental science policy platform on biodiversity and eco system services he confirms that insect populations in germany have declined sharply. it has a lot to do with land usage farming the way we use the land and particularly with the spread of monocultures plus the use of fertilizers and pesticides which are of course important for farming. farmers aren't trying to destroy the land or environment they depend on to the contrary. two thirds of the one hundred most

important crops are pollinated by bees butterflies or flies. muttiah snow says that means farmers themselves ought to be in favor of reforming farming practices he has a collection of specimens of butterflies species that can no longer be found in the area. this is a process we have to stop with there are very good reasons for germany to have a policy that promotes biodiversity the goal is to stop any more species becoming extinct here by two thousand and twenty and even to reverse the trend but we're further from that goal than ever found and his collection contains specimens of the danube clouded yellow that used to be lots of them in germany and austria but the insects habitats have been destroyed in those countries and now they're all gone.

from creepy crawlies to a development moving along at a snail's pace in germany equal rights for women you think a female chancellor could change that along with a medical did introduce a thirty percent quota for seats on non-executive company boards for women but only after her coalition partners championed the idea beyond that little progress christina chua set out to dispel some of the myths about women. women are terrible drivers is that for. women all these situations she's driving and money sitting next to her and when she starts driving the car all you hear is. that you have to over. my head by. the car. if you. go take it easy what's a panic. movement are quite comfortable in the driver's seat secretly quilter knows

she heads up public transport company the base. she's in charge of the police and bus service. before the bay felgate has never been a successful as in the past seven years and for the past seven years i've been the director it's the fourth time for the public with how many women drivers have employed by several hundred driving used to be a man's job and i think some people still have that image in their minds in. we're making a profit every year are passenger numbers exceed the previous record and the image of the bay fogy has changed dramatically. i think that more than proves a woman can do this job and. so ladies quit sitting on the passenger seat here is where you belong with your foot on the gas.

next time i'm made in germany i see that. the for. the for. the for. the for. the for. the for. the for.

news coming to you live from berlin you're thanks another attempt to address its migration crisis the e.u. commission offers some new proposals but will the block's members who are bitterly divided on the issue of green go to brussels for more also coming up a bit more freedom for women in saudi arabia will finally be able to drive activists have been fighting for that right for years. and thailand's former prime minister yingluck shinawatra has been sentenced to five years in jail but she's fled into exile. hello i'm terry martin good to have you with us migration to europe might have slowed but the main the issue remains bitterly divisive among the members of the european union the nations on the front line mainly italy and greece are still

desperately calling for migrants to be resettled elsewhere in the e.u. but some other member states have bluntly refused now the e.u. commission has come up with some recommendations to address those issues let's take a look at the commission wants to let fifty thousand refugees come legally to europe it'll permit future border controls inside the schengen area for a maximum of three years and it wants to send home economic migrants those are migrants just looking for a better paid job as it were well let's listen to europe's migration commissioner in the briefing in brussels with more than sixty five million displaced that around the world we're going to stop showing what's this that's pretty people and companies posting. this is quite we are proposing to support a further fifty thousand resettlement places with half

a billion. and i really count on member states to make shoes flight. this is standing by for us in brussels where he just came out of that meeting with the e.u. commissioner that briefing rather they are caused by the e.u. plans taken fifty thousand refugees we understand directly from africa and them a little east what does that actually mean in practice. terry of the migration prize is a complex pre-press problem and so it is a complex solution that the e.u. has suggested so let me break it down for you on the resettlement program where the commissioner for mobile has now suggested fifty thousand the idea really is as you have said it is to take people directly so for instance so far twenty three thousand have been resettled since the migration crisis started and mainly from jordan and eleven months or syrian refugees these are people who qualify for

a resettlement scheme and then take are taken from these countries and directly brought into european countries it is a recommendation so it's a voluntary scheme and i think that will go rather well with the majority of the member states who have always said let's strengthen the xstrata borders stem the flow of illegal migration and instead bring people in from the countries around those countries where people are fleeing from and help them a lift the burden so the so the countries neighboring countries of a crisis own such for instance as turkey can deal better with the refugees a completely different question is the question of relocation that is the idea that from one member state where people have already come in for instance italy and greece those countries who are at the forefront of the migration crisis that people are relocated and then even against the will of a member state brought to another european country today my impression was that the

european union has taken a giant leap away from that ok now the proposed scheme you say is voluntary gay or given that countries like hungary the czech republic and poland for example are closing their doors to refugees how much cooperation can the e.u. commission expect from member states for its new proposal. i would say the e.u. commission today had a couple a couple of messages practically tailor made for the states for instance the commissioner said the e.u. has to be brutally honest about the its return policy so people who do not qualify should be sent back immediately and these countries in the particularly in the east of europe have a particular problem with the relocation scheme rather than the resettlement scheme that the commission has now suggested which is voluntary so they don't have to participate if they don't want to at the same time the commissioner however made it clear that the relocation scheme as it has been agreed to with one hundred twenty thousand people to read be relocated from one european country to another continues

and the infringement procedures against these kind of member states in particularly in the east that this is the idea that agreed initially to do this in the european council but now say they don't want to take in people these cases continue and might end up in front of the european court of justice with a hefty fine for these countries garrick thank you so much i'm sure we'll be hearing more about this later brussels correspondent yard matters there talking to us from brussels say a look now at some of the other stories making headlines around the world today but francis has launched a campaign aimed at tackling growing anti immigrant sentiment worldwide the two year campaign seeks to raise awareness of the plight of migrants and change how people view them and many migrants and refugees turned out for the pope's weekly address in st peter's square. sources within germany's conservative blog say both dunk choice will step down from his post as finance minister to become president of

the german parliament the move could help chancellor merkel she seeks to negotiate a new coalition polling sundays but the election free democrats have said filling the finance minister post is a precondition for their support. thailand's top court has sentenced former prime minister yingluck shinawatra five years in jail for alleged negligence in the management of a rice subsidy program in look was not present for the hearing she is believed to have fled the country in august when the verdict was originally due. in iraq's kurdish leader has claimed victory in an independence referendum despite orange from the central government in baghdad final results of monday's vote are expected today iraq has refused to hold talks whatever the outcome it's also threaten to impose a light embargoed on kurdish airports. saudi arabia says it's

going to allow women to drive it's a big leap forward for the ultra conservative nation the only one to bar women from getting behind the wheel a royal decree says the ban will be lifted in june the announcement came as something of a surprise and we'll find out why it's come at this time but first this report the streets of saudi arabia have long been a battleground on one hand women wanting to drive on the other the religious conservatives who've called them too stupid their mobility threats to society now it is the women who have won. them to the site of the mud i'm so happy i actually haven't slept since the news broke because i'm so happy i'm twenty seven years old and i've been dreaming about this for my entire life and now it's finally coming true i can hardly wait another nine months and telescopes into

a fact. that the. king so man has issued a decree giving them the right to apply for driving licenses and the freedom of the roads that will be implemented by june next year it's a huge step for saudi arabia enough to warrant a special announcement at the united nations. you may be interested to know that a few minutes ago our oil decree has been issued in saudi arabia giving women the right to drive thank you this is a historic day for saudi society for men and women. for years some saudi women have gone behind the wheel as part of a campaign with global support on social media. this activist lost her job when she was caught others have gone to jail now celebrating their victory.

saudi law and forces a strict form of islam known as well. women have to obey strict dress codes they can't associate with unrelated men if they want to work travel access health care they need the consent or accompaniment of a male guardian but slowly things are changing on saturday women were allowed for the first time into a national stadium for celebrations marking the kingdom's anniversary the movie's part of a program headed by the crown prince to modernize society and saudi women are already wealthy well educated and ambitious and i do mean women now at all levels there in the government advisory council that doctors now women are in big positions so why shouldn't we join the men that matter most to our nation. that boldness would suggest that saudi women will carry on the fight for greater

rights. well joining us now for more on the story is not. she's a journalist who's reported extensively from saudi arabia thanks for coming in this morning. activists have been pushing for a woman's right to drive in saudi arabia for decades why is this happening now well in fact it's happening now because it has to happen and there is no chance another for the royal family nor for the system of the government to push it more and to postpone this issue and the saudi society. is also a strong female society even if we don't realize this the number of very much very well educated and vicious females is really high and they are pushing towards. their role in the society a quarter million of young saudis are studying a brode funded by the government more than sixty percent of them are females who

drive outside the country yet so this brings them with thoughts back that the system and the conservative part of the system cannot sustain anymore ok what about the women in saudi arabia those who maybe have never driven abroad are they going to be able to just start driving next june when the royal saudi houses that it's going to be allowed to be implemented how easy will it be for women to actually exercise their right to drive in saudi arabia at this point first of all i would like to congratulate this how do women for this step and in fact congratulate the king for this decision still it's clear that it's not going to be so easy the first step is to have a committee from foreign ministries who will study the regulations or the needed regulations that are conform with the religion to allow this but still we have a date we have a deadline so i think it's a balance that the king is trying to do between the conservative and the liberal powers in the country so it's going to be allowed but apparently according what i

followed up on twitter. activists is. that age is going to be an issue if they live if their women are married or not there's going to be an issue and some other things which are not clear again in the still very much a male dominated society you mention the need to conform with religious strictures in the country but also that the idea of a male guardian determining what women do in the country is still very much in place won't it be a problem it is in place and i think that this step is one of the first very small steps the saudi saudis are going to go through to drop this regulation having a god because now driving the car does not necessary request having the formation of a god which means that this is one of the the first step of the beginning of the end of this regulation but it is clear when i was in saudi to see that nobody even the women are are asking not to be so fast and with a twenty because there were one of the reactions that might bring them steps back

you know one step ahead the three back so they are everybody was talking about small steps to approach ok i'm afraid we're going to have to leave it there. thank you so much for coming in and talking with us today on the w. news thank you. sports news now and in tuesday's soccer action in the champions league of the biggest match of the night was here in germany where dortmund host a defending champions real madrid dortmund hopes for an upset were dented in the eighteenth minute when care bale put the spanish side on top rail at another just after half time when quizzed on the rinaldo fired home the hosts did pull one back in the fifty fourth minute but with ten minutes to go right now those second sealed the points for a l. dortmund have now played two and lost two in the champions league is. take a look at all of tuesday's champions league group phase action which featured several big victories as we saw dortmund lost to real madrid and fellow bonus league club

a franco german industrial bright program generates rail together to form a new european champion and fend off the chinese and they won't call in sick or take holidays the rise of the robots or to making millions small workers jobs in just he has for now. let's be business bitter rivals for decades now they're teaming up to defend europe's rail sector germany's zaman's oppresses also an emerging savings of four hundred seventy million euros playing down that that means job cuts they say the chinese are hot on the heels the merger between siemens and alstom is on track to create a new european giant in the train building business in the near future the german i.c. and french t.g.v. will come from a single manufacturer siemens wants to bring its entire train division in return for a fifty percent cut of the new siemens k.'s appraise the merger at

a press conference in paris on wednesday the message of. the european spirit is a life to struggle european companies leading the way. by joining forces and country together in a meaningful way and that's a powerful message a powerful message in times which are matched by populist. nationalism social and political rights even after the new firm is founded the pressure on the europeans will increase siemens had considered canadian company. but the deal was reportedly de railed by bomb body a's shaky finances now the competition also richie's needs to approve the deal. we asked our financial correspondent in frankfurt conrad who is in if this is a marriage of equals and more importantly if zealand's will stay on board with is

still considering its track record on mergers. of course this talk of marriage of equals tries to conceal somewhat that they are not perfectly equal why. was the first company in europe to construct and produce high speed trains the famous t.g.v. the god vitesse siemens in recent years has been more successful in selling its trains and its technology worldwide that's why it's so important that the headquarters of the new company will be in paris and that. who is now the else on chief will become the boss of the new company will seem and stay on board well this merger is made in a way different to past mergers that struck in other parts of its businesses siemens for example has the opportunity to have more than fifty percent of the joint venture company and it's going to keep the whole company on its balance sheet

and that indicates that this is more of a long term this is planned to be more of a long term relationship. come right there and let's get yogi a linux take on this from b.w. business let's start with job cuts it doesn't sound like there are going to be many but they could be some at some stage yes well unions right now backed the merger because workers in germany and france have been given a four year job guarantee however at the press conference minute just already said that jobs will be slashed eventually especially administrative jobs and i would like to hear that word slash what about the chinese is the chinese threat real well the state owned c r us c company is by far the largest high speed train manufacturer in the world and they are now conquering europe they frequently gained contracts in great britain and the czech republic and they're taking more and more pieces of the pie away from storm and siemens and that's why joining forces there

and now they've been playing a pretty strategic game here a decade ago they didn't have the technology i've been on their trains they fly down those tracks how they managed to catch up and where they at well up until two thousand and seven they needed to buy foreign high speed trains and they bought them usually from europe and from japan then they told those companies listen we love your trains but if you want to continue to sell them you need to build them right here in china and to put it nicely the chinese learned everything they needed to know then how to make high speed trains and now they build those bullet trains they're festus trains on they go up to four hundred thirty four hundred thirty five kilometers an hour that's two hundred sixty miles and that shows you how far the chinese chinese have come and healthy as the competition is so the competition is fierce what about the rest of europe is it enthusiastic about this merger between siemens and also well the french government is they asked about it especially president mccraw he says that there's going to be

a european champion europe is going to be more more integrated and he takes us as a good example because. seventeen years ago four european countries merged us and compete against the rival boeing and that has been quite a success story and they hope that this is going to continue on the tracks now with the merger so european champion in the air to a european champion on the rails thank you. the world economic forum warns robots to set to replace vast numbers of jobs worldwide and we're not ready for the next wave of automation i'll talk to the american boss of industrial robot make a coca in a moment first this. this corner pizza delivery shop will eventually be employee free soon robots will be taking orders over the internet and carrying out the deliveries. welcome to the wave of the future

video link machines could also replace security staff in shopping centers in emergencies they'd be able to alert human personnel at a central office. these are just some examples of the jobs robots will be able to do in the age of industry four point zero. researchers at oxford university estimate that nearly every second job is at risk in the long term but according to the dusseldorf institute for competition economics there's no reason for panic they point to the highly automated german auto industry which has seen no significant decrease in factory employees in recent years. the numbers show that more and more industrial robots are being bought worldwide in two thousand and ten manufacturers supplied a total of one hundred twenty one thousand robots according to the international federation of robotics that set to climb to more than half a million by two thousand and twenty. this trend offers new opportunities

especially in leading robot manufacturing countries such as japan the us south korea china and germany. there will continue to be urgent demand for skilled software developers mechanical engineers and installation technicians jemma joins us now from the international federation of robotics is in frankfurt joe can we put a number on job losses by talking about job cuts today ah the robots going to take away that many jobs. it's certainly a good point and it's one of the things that people do talk about however as you heard earlier the automotive industry in germany is a good example of the actually the opposite in the united states in fact in the last three or four years in a row we have had expects potential growth in terms of the quantity of robots that have been purchased at the same time in michigan and ohio alone they've added

seventy five thousand jobs in manufacturing so basically what they're saying here is the largest what are you fields are opening up to us is that the case a whole lot and you chances up in unities give me some examples exist exactly in fact the electronics industry a good example of that that market itself has grown dramatically in across the world even in the united states foxconn is moving a manufacturing facility for l.c.d. display manufacturing in the united states china korea japan south korea they're all growing in automation the same time growing in manufacturing because automation technologies is helping them to adapt and their manufacturing capabilities and the merging of different technologies and all we have available of different sensory capabilities that work together with the robotics in people and maybe we're more enthusiastic about what's going on going forward some of the really exciting things about what's going on in technologies collaborative robots in mobility and robots

in collaborative meaning collaborative opportunities of humans and robots working together to give us more productivity more efficiency so the small medium sized companies across the world that is traditionally a challenge will be able to be competitive now have the opportunity with this technology and the ability to use robots in their manufacturing to be competitive worldwide and keep actually the manufacturing in their various countries well tell me about the americans because they seem to be most worried about their jobs trump wants to see americans buy american and also to generate more american jobs how you are laying feeds where you come from as far as robotics go in the way ahead. it's true we see articles on both sides of that in fact the mckinsey report said that less than ten percent of all robot jobs are even automatable but it is it is true that we hear about that in the market that people worry about their jobs but

actually is the reality to it over the last thirty years every time robotics installations have gone up unemployment's going down every time robotics installations are going down a sales gone down on a plane has gone up so it's actually the opposite this actually happen it's an evolution of things where what's really happening now is we're creating new jobs but that means we also need more skilled workers there is this going to be a shortfall next ten years they are going to be opportunity for three million jobs skilled jobs and we only have available one point four million people that we will fill those jobs we're going to short fall two million jobs it won't be able to be filled we need to find a solution to that and part of that will be automation part of the we help educating a retraining people to be working in the state with this technology so actually creating jobs it's the opposite ok you had it there from jama the international federation of robotics thank you very much for being on the show thank you for having us we appreciate it and i was doing business with you.
