ending sneaky ways of an invention themselves, the 77 percent. and 60 minutes on w. we've got some hot tips for your package. the zip code is spots affinities. check on some great cultural memorials to be w, travel the it's sometimes hard to keep pace with high tech developments. but intelligent robots are helping us go higher, faster and further. think of this, i think we'll be able to improve the lives of millions of people that come on the ground under water and in the skies. a range of innovative ideas are making the world

a safer place the shortly before their actual destination. this driver see something that might be of interest to his european passenger. yeah. yeah. yeah. yeah. so sure, i feel like this is tom for them as the 1st time in malawi, the 32 year old german has big plans. and what he sees here is most encouraging people to do the checkups. yeah. yeah. so not inside the people come yet line up. yeah. you treat them to see which is basically it's, it's

a good example for showing what it's really light codes here. a clinic with new electricity or water and monday morning for people basically get help once a month. i usually like to know what forced to that area is there about 6 by 6 meters. it could definitely be another hub to connect to our network. no problems. and that's big, big time, hopefully in a hub, in this case, being a mini airfield, the not for planes. but for drugs, the operations in costume go, have been running for 4 years to actually to find the door and the operations that you if you want to show me around, i'm happy, but i don't want to stopped operation. the good guys. i love to see the latest model of the drone. the $198.00 applies,

that speeds of up to 110 kilometers per hour and can vary in pay load of 5 kilograms to a destination. 65 kilometers away at the wing comforter is the brainchild of talking to me. you can see the drone. there wasn't a mice going to quote that had the biggest impact on me and who i am today is my time and gone to west africa on of so it was people were dying there simply because medication wasn't available when it was needed. i mean with the data, was it dr. beasen? yeah. science or to the moment i thought to and if we can help to change things, we must, which is why we're doing what we do here and see from get us off of almost all at the tone when i just sort of, i've been studied film at college, back in germany, how does to me, i can wonder, debate the technology available on the team and come with us, especially drones able to fly anywhere. phone coming in is i can smoke some so and you know, i know use them to transport medication coming in or stepping on me to come in to

financing that was 7 years ago since then. the bomb or film student has founded a cargo drone company together with like minded engineers and i t specialist, an enterprise earning millions and sales from commercial delivery services operating and 15 countries around the world. but tom has never lost sight of his humana, terry, and gold, those medical and social because you with this, we now have over 20 young local people who have learned everything from scratch. we wouldn't like jump. so in addition to improving and saving lives by supplying vaccines with oratory samples, blood reserves, and medicine, and then we really can also create jobs. would you do this? and some of those young people now have a job as well paid and involves future technology. which is great, but he does is i can use decibels as ultima. and now in consumer future technology

is being used to provide basic medical care to over a 100000 people. and so he just received an order from we have access to him to they have run out of medicine and now we pick it up branches and draw on and send that makes it good. them the list, it's become the list we get. let us know what's needed in real time, and i think good. in this case of skin, there's also hospital pharmacy, the stock, some medication that come in, which is not available. item the village is, let's see. it has an indifferent 4 kilometers away from the plane top is the main hospital of cause some good the medical supplies in the drones, the transport them are funded by the german ministry for economic cooperation and development. and the malawi and health authorities, the limits

change, anything else from the small clinics in the countryside are difficult to reach us with poor infrastructure and rude dismissal. and the drone can solve that problem in a matter of minutes via the air losing this problem, we can pick up the items here called the hospitallers, of course, happy that the clinics and normally difficult to reach. i know suddenly being supplied short notice includes ebony but as the batteries are inserted and final checks are performed, the weather has comes considerably since the tropical storm a few days ago. the in the switch city of zurich, other innovative mindset, created an odd looking contraption, made of plastic and aluminum its makers called the canine looking creature, any miles, due to its ability to go anywhere, its battery operated and can walk,

see fuel climb and lie down for rest all on its own. inventor peter funk house, built his 1st robot over 10 years ago while studying at zuric technical university . he helped develop anymore and now directs a team of 110 people going through the hobbies when i was a kid. i was fascinated by moving parts of the thing and i sold it small solar cells from an electrical storm to somebody. they got motors to see what was possible to see the vitamin. come with them through boston with legal space and i later got into programming and that's how all the hardware and software came together with right. politics again at the center. this intimate the state a guy has turned anymore into a small robo dog that can now monitor industrial facilities and certainly alarm when it detects irregularities. fucked. this human error is still the number one

cause of accidents and the robot doesn't make these mistakes. so we can ensure safe operations while keeping individuals out of danger. so when i was taking it in direct sense, the robot saves lives at the vapor the current edition has already been try it out in working environments, considered high risk for humans. tasks involving carol as heights. but we're gas leak. skinner. it also has no trouble of working in total darkness for west conditions. the for the, the new model will soon be tested as a guard and sniffer dog, for used by one of the world's largest corporations. but 1st, the quadrate. that has to master it, challenging training course is i'm well, it's in my mind and peter funk, how's a start? the test. so the now on

a docking station fully charged and ready for deployment. kind of looks like i said, we'll have the same set up at the client's premises with the robot ready to go. and us starting the mission from here. so i'll send you stuff the as well. so this is a test mission. the robot goes up and to read the display, then goes off. his task comes back down and scans a few of the elements supervisor and i meant those things to it's regular and thermal imaging. cameras and email can analyze what it seeing and forward the data . and crucially, for working in industrial plants, it can scale stairs. sensors and the legs enabled the machine to feel the ground underneath. with that information stored by the unit, it learns continuously from every training session. test mission completed. perfect . as of now we can send it on its way. i'm so sick of

the client is b a s f that's headquarters and lunatics. hoffman covers some 10 square kilometers, one of the largest chemical complexes in the world. the workforce at 39000 works on building blocks for everything from plastics and pains to solvents and if he sits. but they developed a, it's a robotics expert at the company and is eager to see how the 4 legged help her affairs on its maintenance tour. okay. very good starts literally on the ground. and in a minute i'm expecting the robot to deliver what it promises. so, so the volume please be as of this testing a range of models from different suppliers. any more x can be least for around

$8000.00 euros per month. this is the 1st time we're going to these 2 points to look at the displays and then take the thermal image of the 2 pump sunday and mucking out it detects the pressure display and then interprets the information the defense. i guess that once we look at the 2nd one, we'll see that it's up and running. then it's on the side, downtown them in between dusty. this is the last thing. the, the 1st test involves any more relaying another thermal image to the display, which it does. it also passes test number 2, walking across a grid floor. now the ultimate challenge is at this one. the robot has to scale these 2 sections of status, fully autonomously. for potential client b ss, this is the make or break test the,

the slips please physically, it managed to hit those target locations stands make its way up. the standards of, of, of the paper. a full sized suburbans can come to mind a milestone for us. right. now my understanding of this k 9 is no cuddly companion made of metal and trained with a guy. it's a fully fledged guard and watch dog the malawi ranks among the poorest countries in the world. intact roads or a rarity which hampers the provision of medical care, especially in rural areas. well, infant mortality is following it still 10 times higher than in germany. for example, the delivery of medication has been prepared for a remote village. the drone is almost ready for take off at the air field outside

consumable. as i'm, it's other. so with the medicine that on board, the drone is about to take off vertically. but i live at and these, and then i'll be driving to the village with andy to see what a challenge that is. it's a direct comparison between how it used to be met with a drug defense, any admitted one of the car and drove and we'll both be setting off from the custodial air field. their destination is the village of live ac, about 48 kilometers away. the drone find its destination via gps coordinates. tom to ma is joined by on the percentage when comforters, head of humanitarian programs. the the wing comforter is a helicopter and small airplane in one. the vertical take off springs the machine to its flying altitude of about 30 meters. then the rotors tilt 90 degrees to

propel the comforter forwards with lift provided by the wings. just like a plain the only paid roads in malawi are those connecting the main towns and cities once they leave them tom prima and his team continue their journey on dirt tracks the and the how has it isn't still okay compared to what we would see. now is this the worse it so yes, there, this is still a good road. yeah. this is 15 minutes after starting out. the drone is just a few kilometers away from its destination. while the car is having serious trouble getting through the mud and potholes the, the land route is clearly losing the race. as the cars progress goes from slow to

a complete halt. the the, the, the delivery drone reaches its destination without incident and lands on schedule. it needed precisely 20 minutes for the 48 kilometers flight. in the same time, the car has not even covered half the distance. and now it's stuck to business like really capacitors. that means that when people, you know how deep the water is, what it is a minimum. oh, okay, let's go. and can we, can we go and check if there's a way around? yeah, i think that it'd be best flooding is not uncommon during the rainy season. a potential disaster if this were a medical emergency thompson,

that is determined to continue his journey, even though he's lost the race against the wing comforter. back in germany, in the port of hamburg, we joined a 30 strong research team working to save the ocean's. fits and you close 30 percent. scoobie. 20 or 30 centimeters above the sea bed? yeah, the, the research project is called see clear. apply on the words clear view and clean. see, step on says nazi and his international team have a boat packed with high tech to help them clean up waters that are both murky and polluted. the big clinton as often as we can find things and grabs them with real bucks. i've

seen that kind of thing with them, and then these ones operate under water. so what about the bottom you missed? so why not is use them to tackle this big problem of legion or other methods. it kind of helps them come into the house for the wrong foot ones. the challenge for us is extremely complex. nature of the settlement, alexis is doing this whole team, is need everything to work together for the entire system to function at home with this. cuz i'm, this is team evolved from, to me in con the port. ultimately, we need at least some kind of solution that's a genuine help because there's far too much marine litter on the sea that often we have is conflict. marine debris washing up on beaches is a growing challenge for environmental activists. the vast majority of it is on the sea bed, at depths too dangerous for divers. it's estimated that there is far in excess of a $100000000.00 tons of waste in our oceans the to see clear

research team have successfully completed an initial trial run here in croatia. robots able to work at depths of up to 500 meters, can be used to clean the sea, been near ports and coastlines, at least after scanning the c panel and locating a spot with a lot of garbage. the boat drops the robot into the water to transmit close up images. additional data is provided by an airborne surveillance strong. another robot can then go and pick up the debris and collect it and a waste basket. st. clair is an a you funded project that provides a small scale demonstration of how the c bed might in the future be cleaned up on a far larger scale. the trial run and croatia was a success and hammer the same

technical set of faces a far tougher task. the bottom of the river elbow is covered in silver settlement and money making garbage. they are often invest both to the naked eye. even the cameras fitted onto the little diving robots struggle to see anything. the inc. lots and i won't give you in croatia. we had about 20 to 25 meters visibility here. it's 25 centimeters. let's see. so we can see here how we can't even recognize objects that were practically right next to. so that doesn't exactly make it any easier to find to identify things that we did different sealants within the port visibility means they must deploy an ultra sound scanner to search for objects these to brian, to sponsor the 2 and the many trays where we have stored the garbage onto shines.

it's no time for the robots to take over. the only thing the team can do now is operate the cameras. while the mothership puts the waste basket in place on the bottom of the river, the observation robots and starts looking for debris with a camera and so not ok. now a 2nd robot fitted with a ripper is launched. we would manage to find the bottle detected by the sooner that could either refer seems to be right over it is it's not too close that i 5 and it's grabbed it. that's how much it's like, it's costing a firm hold on the bottle. how does this lesson? so now we can get going and the system will place it in the basket crop up leaving on our, on our it's a mammoth undertaking for one plastic model. the project is often

a thankless task. as is typical for research. we have a settlement prove to tough a challenge for the artificial intelligence of a discount could be the basket. the task to like the best we have the basket. does that make sounds tiny, deleted the grip or manage to find the waste basket. despite being practically blind, it's next task is to locate the entry hole for depositing the bottle. it's like it's of also is moving and we've recovered it. i'm good. good job. nice. yeah there's and we've just managed to grab the bottle at the 1st attempt item, which is great, but because that's a major milestone for our project and screwed them by the stipends of what it gives us reassurance. that'd be nice to see what else we can achieve. and we're going to

have, this is of the future is eventually having these systems all over the world and against it to clean up the sea and go some ways of freeing it from the legacy. ever since i've lost my positive wisdom, define kind of the underwater trash collection system works regardless of visibility. conditions with no need for diapers. the only human being required in future will be the person emptying the waste basket. the torrential rain in malawi has rendered the roads impassable when comforter boss thompson, him and his team are still trying to reach the remote village of lift weighs the by car, but it usually tranquil a little stream is flooded its banks the. wow, can you check how deep it is? the

the water gets progressively deeper in the middle. asked to do. okay. finish as a horse. and it's just because in that, and that's like the inside of the semester, i get the water is up to here on the lights out of it, but still the car probably won't make it and will have to import the journey. i cannot advise, this is exactly why trying to deliver medicine quickly by car simply doesn't work. and why are drew's other perfect solution to the problem. one can know, you know, things and so that's probably on their way back to consume the team, take a short detour to the village of lynn yang y the to raise a bundle lives here with her 4 children. she experienced complications with the birth of her youngest son, philip a year ago. the lady was saved by help from the sky.

the do, you know, got my child almost suffocated at bus. and i was extremely scared. he was going to die because we didn't have a vital tube at the bottom iga but luckily help arrived just in time for that had great difficulty breathing and otherwise she would definitely have stuff that contributed to the room. the wing comforter is a small miracle for the community of 150 people and the big, the listing the the old electric drone is unloaded by my talking mcdonald, who runs the local health care center. it was he who made the emergency call for the tube to save philip. the drone make several visits a week to provide the doctor with medical supplies, the live saver 7 cents the term to man himself. the father of 2 children is

personally moved by the story of little philip, the and the see you, you good. this is really good headphones. so how is kind of doing some shopping with phone always, you know to this, she was saying that uh, since she was born can you can just okay. and is just inside the briefing is increasing is good. yes, he's just reading no money, no machine. because there's different kind of philip story shows exactly how effective our work is. in fact, like, you know, what i find did when culture 7 years ago, this was exactly what i was hoping for us to have. so that the child like fill it in just being can survive and be sitting here in their phillips. he hasn't come yet . you believe then with that because the mother just said that she wants him to be a drone pilot. 20 years up there been

a month and we do also train young people in your house. so when he's maybe 12 or older, he can start learning the technology. this, daniel, i'm when he's really growing up, i think you'll be one of our brilliant employees here in malawi, in my life, back at the wing comforter hub thompson. that takes a video, come, accelerate, and scale this impact we have already had most gave. all right. and it will just quickly as it is, have and say what we're doing here. we have 3 hub about 30 delivery sites and we have a team of 9 pilots that are running the operations. so it's really wonderful. thank you. and that can show you the joint. it's like a to me to winston. here's your template, the veterans and below is extreme pain or, and then uh yeah, we haven't whole f here with you. tom is one of a 100 young people around the world to be commended in 2023 for their efforts to provide solutions to humanitarian or climate related problems. most of them are, but you have to work with decision makers. just make them aware of situations like

this, especially with the suffering and the solution. human does actually creating something that will change things in the long term. doesn't end up coming, playing the spear in today's world with all the modern means available is unacceptable for some people to get nothing of what we have unless you, this is no, we haven't really privilege lives in germany and leaving this when you come here and see what other people really don't have if you think lucas, miss, how can i not do more this? it never leaves my mind enough to him, and the systems dispossessed with me. i'm listening to dedicated to minutes. joining forces with intelligent machines as they seek to eliminate hazards and saved lives with high tech help the

hello and welcome to another edition of the 77 percent. we investigate the phenomenon of faith process to use god. read on the gospel to money for leads and the next flights vulnerable people will look at a house from past as a finding sneaky ways of an invasion themselves. this 77 percent 30 minutes on d. w. per 1st child at 15 and her 2nd 1017 fits all to comment these teenage mothers age special assistance and finding at
