You're live with Newsround this Wednesday. | 0:00:03 | 0:00:06 | |
Ayshah here this morning with the children creating memories | 0:00:06 | 0:00:10 | |
of the soldiers who died in World War I and the rest | 0:00:10 | 0:00:13 | |
of your top stories. | 0:00:13 | 0:00:17 | |
First, Europe's biggest robotics event has been taking place | 0:00:21 | 0:00:25 | |
in France and all the talk is about something called a Cobot. | 0:00:25 | 0:00:29 | |
The thinking has been to one day have robots do our jobs for us, | 0:00:29 | 0:00:33 | |
but the idea behind the Cobot is that it will work with humans | 0:00:33 | 0:00:34 | |
rather than replace them. | 0:00:36 | 0:00:43 | |
BBC Technology reporter Rory Cellan-Jones is up close | 0:00:43 | 0:00:45 | |
and personal with the latest from Innorobo in Paris. | 0:00:45 | 0:00:48 | |
Now, these dancing robots are a lot of fun and they look like toys | 0:00:49 | 0:00:52 | |
but they are pretty clever. | 0:00:52 | 0:00:54 | |
There is lots of clever technology in them. | 0:00:54 | 0:00:56 | |
Robots are doing all sorts of things in all sorts of places. | 0:00:56 | 0:00:59 | |
Let's go and find out a bit more. | 0:00:59 | 0:01:01 | |
This is Pepper - it is what is called | 0:01:01 | 0:01:03 | |
a companion robot. | 0:01:03 | 0:01:06 | |
It is already in lots of Japanese homes and businesses and it | 0:01:06 | 0:01:08 | |
will be coming to Europe. | 0:01:08 | 0:01:10 | |
She doesn't do much but she is going to appear in all sorts | 0:01:10 | 0:01:13 | |
of shops quite soon, giving you information. | 0:01:13 | 0:01:15 | |
Maybe at the train station telling you when the next train is due. | 0:01:15 | 0:01:18 | |
But basically, she is supposed to be a bit of fun, aren't you? | 0:01:18 | 0:01:21 | |
Robots have been in factories for years but they are dangerous, | 0:01:21 | 0:01:24 | |
they have to be locked away. | 0:01:24 | 0:01:25 | |
They can harm people and of course they take people's jobs. | 0:01:25 | 0:01:28 | |
But there is a new kind here called a collaborative robot which you can | 0:01:28 | 0:01:31 | |
work together with in factories and I am about to go | 0:01:31 | 0:01:34 | |
and teach one a simple job. | 0:01:34 | 0:01:36 | |
We are going to teach this robot a simple task. | 0:01:36 | 0:01:39 | |
Get it to take this from there and Guillaume, | 0:01:39 | 0:01:41 | |
show me how you train a robot. And now do I press a button? | 0:01:41 | 0:01:44 | |
Yeah, on this one. That button? | 0:01:44 | 0:01:46 | |
Yeah. Press that button, OK. | 0:01:46 | 0:01:48 | |
That's lovely. | 0:01:48 | 0:01:50 | |
You can see on the screen, that is... | 0:01:50 | 0:01:53 | |
You have activated the first pitch. | 0:01:53 | 0:01:55 | |
OK. Then, you just grab it again here. | 0:01:55 | 0:01:58 | |
Grab it again here? Yeah. | 0:01:58 | 0:02:01 | |
Move it across because we are going to put it down. | 0:02:01 | 0:02:03 | |
Put it down? Yeah. | 0:02:03 | 0:02:05 | |
Put it down there. | 0:02:05 | 0:02:07 | |
So now, we will see if you did it well. | 0:02:07 | 0:02:11 | |
Now we are going to see if it works. Almost good. | 0:02:11 | 0:02:16 | |
I think it's worked. | 0:02:20 | 0:02:24 | |
Scottish player Kim Little has been named BBC Women's Footballer | 0:02:25 | 0:02:28 | |
of the Year 2016 She plays for the Seattle Reign team | 0:02:28 | 0:02:32 | |
and has played 115 times for Scotland, scoring 46 goals. | 0:02:32 | 0:02:38 | |
Finally, this summer a special anniversary will remember | 0:02:39 | 0:02:43 | |
the soldiers who died during the Battle of The Somme - | 0:02:43 | 0:02:46 | |
the deadliest battle of World War I. | 0:02:46 | 0:02:49 | |
On 1st July, a concert will be held in Manchester to remember those | 0:02:49 | 0:02:52 | |
who lost their lives and children are being asked to get involved. | 0:02:52 | 0:02:57 | |
The Battle of the Somme, fought in northern France, | 0:03:00 | 0:03:04 | |
was one of the bloodiest of World War I. | 0:03:04 | 0:03:08 | |
For five months, the British and French armies clashed | 0:03:08 | 0:03:12 | |
with the German-led opposition in a brutal battle. | 0:03:12 | 0:03:14 | |
Almost 100 years later, young people are being asked | 0:03:14 | 0:03:17 | |
to create memory squares, dedicated to those who died. | 0:03:17 | 0:03:21 | |
I decided to remember the post men and women because it must have been | 0:03:21 | 0:03:25 | |
so hard to have to be delivering news and stuff about how | 0:03:25 | 0:03:28 | |
so many people had died. | 0:03:28 | 0:03:31 | |
I decided to remember Patrick McGuire, a former | 0:03:31 | 0:03:34 | |
Manchester City player, because I am quite a big | 0:03:34 | 0:03:37 | |
Manchester City fan. | 0:03:37 | 0:03:39 | |
I drew a door with a telegram going through it. | 0:03:39 | 0:03:43 | |
He was a young man when he signed from City, around 21. | 0:03:43 | 0:03:47 | |
Eventually, thousands of memory squares will be printed on to tiles | 0:03:50 | 0:03:54 | |
and then placed on a special pathway here at Heaton Park in Manchester. | 0:03:54 | 0:03:57 | |
It is all part of the national commemoration of the | 0:03:57 | 0:04:01 | |
Battle of the Somme. | 0:04:01 | 0:04:03 | |
The reason why we remember the Somme so much more | 0:04:03 | 0:04:06 | |
than perhaps any other battle in the First World War, | 0:04:06 | 0:04:09 | |
is because of the pals. | 0:04:09 | 0:04:12 | |
You had groups of people going together, all from the same | 0:04:12 | 0:04:15 | |
neighbourhood, the same town, the same sports club. | 0:04:15 | 0:04:18 | |
They all went to war together and that meant that lots of them | 0:04:18 | 0:04:21 | |
were killed or wounded together. | 0:04:21 | 0:04:24 | |
It was a really big event and because so many people died, | 0:04:24 | 0:04:29 | |
it is good to remember them and to feel proud about them | 0:04:29 | 0:04:33 | |
because they fought for our country. | 0:04:33 | 0:04:37 | |
Once uploaded, these memory squares will play an important part | 0:04:37 | 0:04:40 | |
in commemorating the anniversary of this well-known battle. | 0:04:40 | 0:04:45 | |
That's all from me, Newsround's back right here in about half an hour. | 0:04:49 | 0:04:53 | |
