Ep. 24)....Shapeshifting Transformer
According to Hollywood evil robots are all around us, disguised as cars and trucks. But what the
movies don't explain is what kind of mechanical power allows a Camero to stand up and move around
like a human. Dr. Michio Kaku is on a quest to build a real life shapeshifting Transformer. On the
way, he takes a ride in the amazing hydraulic cars of New York's 'Lunatic Low Riders' and explains
the awesome power of a hydraulic smashing crane. At Pittsburgh Zoo, he gets an audience with
Nature's greatest transformer- a color changing , shapeshifting fifty pound hunk of muscle that can
squeeze itself through a hole the size of a quarter. Over at Carnegie Mellon, researchers are more
impressed with the abilities of the snake. Their robotic serpent can adapt itself to any terrain as
it searches for the survivors of disasters. Its modular design impresses Michio as he puts the
finishing touches to his very own version of Optimus Prime.
