and nearly a million people have been affected. water levels in rivers are also running high in bangladesh where about two million people have been hit by the floods. now on bbc news, time for click. this week, we re going to sea to see what the seals can see. really?! yes. and what can they see? an enormous turbine. we re going to find out whether sea life and sea machines can happily coexist. this is a harbour seal, and this is what we re looking for in the data. shiona takes control of this monster. paul gets up close to this beast. oh. - wrong room. and zoe gets attacked by a giant ironman. hello and welcome to another scenic glasgow location. mm hm. behind us is a victorian ship. for a long time, we ve known the power of wind at sea. but we re getting better than ever before at harnessing wind power. yeah. now, the year 2020 won t be fondly remembered for much, i d say. but it was at least a very windy year. apparently in 2020 we produced 50% more wind power than 2019.

working in challenging and hazardous conditions. but here at heriot watt university, they re developing underwater robotic solutions to help take the strain. and they ve come up with this the orca autonomous drone. we ve got our scanning sonar, a mechanical scanning sonar. that can see all of these structures and items around the vehicle at quite a long distance. we ve got an acoustic modem. this means that when we don t use the tether, we can communicate with the robot using sounds underwater. and how does it move around in the water, is it with these propellers that i can see here on either side? there are eight thrusters that are used and it can move it in all six directions. you ve got forward, backwards, left, right, up, down, then you ve got roll, pitch, and turn. oh, wow, so it s pretty manoeuvrable then? yes. all this technology allows the device to work autonomously, planning its own route to fully scan a structure with little human intervention. so, the system tha
