Tech Life - Beyond the tip of the iceberg
Download Beyond the tip of the iceberg
Tech Life looks at icebergs. Climate change means there are more of them in our oceans, breaking away and slowly melting. Scientists need to study them - but how ? We speak to an expert about robotic gliders, which are opening up new research opportunities.
Also in this edition, can we trust artificial intelligence ? One of its problems is that it hallucinates, so we find out more about it.
How can tech help people who are blind or partially sighted watch TV ?
And our reporter gets his hands dirty examining rhino poo!
