him earlier tonight. >> did anyone in the white house reach out to you or any of the colleagues at mit before citing the study yesterday. >> no we were of course completely surprised. it was hard for us to imagine how that study could be used to support withdrawal of the u.s. from the agreement. if anything. it would seem to suggest that the -- the u.s. should engage even more with the paris accord. and the paris accord of course includes a schedule for reviewing progress and making new commitments. so it's -- it's part of the negotiation process that president trump suggested he wanted to reengage. so there is no -- it doesn't make any sense to me that one would withdraw. >> if they had reached out to you if the white house had reached out to you you would have told them what? continue with the accord and tray to do more? >> yes. in fact, i and my colleagues at mit have something we call a climate policy plan accelerator which we're trying to bring the tools we have to help different countries meet the agreements. because people doesn't have a firm idea of exactly how they're going to

there was a study done by researchers recently at mit, that found u.s. sanctions imposed against north korea have been largely unsuccessful at curving the country's i will lice it procurement because of in part north korea has been able to adapt. there's a growing capacity to work around sanctions. so could sanctions and pressure on north korea alone resolve nuclear issue? it's very unlikely. i think even if we look at the case of iran, extensive sanctions on their own didn't bring the iranians to the table. there were other factors we can talk about them. and this is even less likely in the case of north korea because pyongyang is not as reliant on the global financial system as iran. so in this new policy, it also leaves room for engagement. so that's the fourth element that i see. and my thinking on this is with the new u.s. administration comes an opportunity to try to forge diplomatic path, especially whether it's clear that current approach is not working. relying on a pressure only approach is dangerous because it is inherently an approach of esca

and finally, researchers at mit have developed sensors for robotic arms that aim to help bots grab thingse negotiating smaller objects possible as well as making general household tasks easier to approach. this would be handy if one day robot are to become ordinary household companions. around the world scientists are looking at different ways of improving our quality—of—life auster pierces alternate sources of power. soft robotics, and possibly in future bionic limbs. but in italy's liability at other things. they are looking at simulating touch. researchers are trying to merge human physiology machine engineering. the team are working on a bionic fingertip that is capable of detecting texture. the human sense of touch is incredibly complex one. i don't even need to look at these three pieces of plastic to sense the differences in the ridges. how do you transfer that same sensitivity into a prosthetic hand? fingertips have a higher concentration thanks to 20,000 nerve fibres on each finger. it registers textures its touches as spikes. on—screen it may look simple but that is exactly the

at mit's that on a hidden camera and c.n.n. doesn't dispute any of that video and says we stand by our producer he's not really involved in that kind of coverage and then van jones is on camera. same organization a project veritas things van jones in the street who is on camera two days before this saying this is awful this is terrible and then he says to the guy on camera unbeknown to that he's on camera this is a nothing burger i mean what credibility how do you trust that name ok richard can you reflect upon that because you know c.n.n. hasn't disputed any of these things here and we asked directly a producer at c.n.n. if this is a real story the russia story the russia gate story and and he said it's b.s. it's simple it's not i mean it's it's very transparent ok and if you c.n.n. wants to explain that as diversity when i you know then they needed communications director to communicate their message here richard please go ahead and i'm sure you disagree that's why you're here go you're. you know what's not in dispute peter w

and, finally, researchers at mit have developed sensors for the grippers of robotic arms that aimed toe right amount of pressure. the gelsight sensors aim to make negotiating smaller objects possible, as well as making general household tasks easier to approach — which would be handy, if one day robots are to become ordinary household companions. around the world, scientists are looking at different ways of improving our quality of life. here, it is alternative sources of power. at soft robotics, it's smart materials and possibly in the future bionic limbs. but in italy's scuola superiore sant‘anna, they are looking at sensation. ana matronic went there to look at attempts to simulate touch. i am at the biorobotics lab where researchers are trying to merge human physiology with machine engineering. the team are working on a bionic fingertip that is capable of detecting texture. the human sense of touch is an incredibly complex one. i don't even need to look at these three pieces of plastic to sense the differences in the coarseness of the ridges. this of course presents a huge problem

researchers at mit have come up with a unique way to let the visually impaired know more about what'sff and feeds that detail back using vibrations through a belt and an electronic braille interface. microsoft showed off a range of mixed reality headsets, they're designed to blend the real world and virtual content into one where physical and digitally created objects co—exist and interact. more on augmented reality in a tick. google maps now doesn'tjust take you to your destination, it offers you a guided tour of it. click on an art museum and take a peek around with each artwork displayed with the gallery's notations, plus extra links to find out more. now, as you've just been hearing, microsoft may be leading the way in mixed or augmented reality, but they're not the only company that's trying to make you see things that aren't really there. i'm at the augmented world expo, which has doubled in size since last year, a sign of the excitement this relatively new technology is generating. you can actually reach out. so i can grab that? yes, and then pull it out. pull it out. oh, i've
