Will Robot Spy Crab Survive The Killer Punch Of A Peacock Mantis Shrimp
Ойын-сауық
Robot Spy Crab follows a peacock mantis shrimp in search of a meal but being disguised as a crab may not be the best choice!!!
Clip taken from episode 4 'Deep Trouble' of our series Spy in the Ocean. Spy in the Ocean is available on iPlayer in the UK:
www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode...
and on PBS in the US:
www.pbs.org/wnet/nature/episo...
This final episode explores the challenges ocean life must overcome to survive. On the island of South Georgia, a version of the first Spy Camera ever made makes a triumphant return. This new Bouldercam dodges eight tonnes of colliding blubber as male elephant seals fight off rivals. In the chaos, an elephant seal pup is separated and his survival depends on finding his mother. Bouldercam is with him all the way as he fights off skuas and other dangers. Spy Crab meets the infamous peacock mantis shrimp and soon finds itself on the receiving end of the strongest punch in nature, a knockout blow faster than a speeding bullet. In the Galapagos, Spy Seal does its best to keep up with a lonesome sea lion as it chases tuna, one of the fastest fish in the ocean. Not only must he catch this enormous fish alone, he must do it while fighting off hungry sharks. In the hidden depths of the Californian coast, there are fish that must be seen to be believed. Alien-like sarcastic fringehead use their outsized gaping mouths to ward of rivals. Spy Fringehead is soon caught in the brawl, but its open mouth reveals a camera, one that captures a fish-eye’s view of the threat it faces. Off the coast of British Columbia, huge herring shoals face even greater trouble as they head to their spawning grounds. Spy Herring eavesdrops on the strange sounds produced by flatulent herring as they guide others to the spot. Our Spy slips into the shoal as they attempt to dodge marauding sea lions and the diving scoter ducks that are after their eggs. Life on the beach isn’t always the paradise it’s cracked up to be. When hermit crabs gather to swap their shells, things can go very wrong, very quickly. When a crab loses its shell it has to think on its feet. Its solution is inventive - the lid of some suntan lotion provides a temporary refuge from predatory birds. Our Spies are not immune to trouble themselves. When Spy Pelican films the spectacular spawning of grunion fish as thousands emerge from the sea to spawn on the beach, it takes a catastrophic plunge into the surf, leaving Spy Crab to takeover filming duties. Spy Iguana is also in trouble when it tries to film iguanas gallantly battling the stormy sea. Despite its best efforts it is soon washed away. When the same happens to Spy Octopus, all is not lost. It’s rescued from the storm surges by its old friend, the coconut octopus. On their many adventures across the series, our Spy Creatures travelled the globe to reveal the extraordinary intelligence, surprising emotions and complex social lives possessed by ocean life. On the way, they shed light on the mysteries of the deep as never before.

@@misstinwhistle1 You've got it backwards. Compared to most members of the animal kingdom human vision is superior in terms of detail, distance and colour differentiation. The only category of animals that consistently outdoes us in those metrics are birds of prey. Pretty much the only aspect that we outright do poorly in is night vision, and that's a direct consequence of specialising for the aforementioned colour perception. Regarding the Mantis Shrimp specifically, it's worth noting that they can't actually perceive the colours that we see all that well.

The real magic is in the software. I could probably 3D print the parts, shell out some extra money for really small but powerful servos, maybe even use some 3D scans of real crabs for reference, and have something capable of motorized articulation of all the joints in about a month. But to get everything to move together so fluidly, and be responsive to sensors with such smooth PIDs... I wouldn't be able to at all. That's some Boston Dynamics level programing right there.
If it weren’t for the camera in the center I’d think that was a real crab. The design is impeccable.
Can we take a moment, just to appreciate this amazing work? Wow!
Thanks to Spy Crab, this kind of up-close and personal view of the action would be possible. Thanks for the video.
