Micro Live

Episode 4 (2x4)

Data di messa in onda: Nov 01, 1985

A look at new developments in information technology. The doomed Three Mile Island reactor in Pennsylvania is the focus for work on artificial intelligence by the robotics department of nearby Carnegie Mellon University. American reporter Freff looks at some of the problems involved in designing robot vehicles which can move around on their own, recognise objects and do useful work. The aim: to clean up the radioactive interior. Fred Harris makes the most of music on the micro while Lesley Judd finds out why holding personal data on your computer will probably mean sending E22 to an address in Cheshire.
