Sander and the fast Fish

Sander shows the boys a super efficient robotic fish in the deep seas.

Today Jean and Joris are finding Nemo in Delft. Together with a graduate of the TUDelft, Sander van den Berg, they dive in to discover what can be found in the deepest seas: a super efficient robotic fish. Furthermore, they encounter self-conscious robots, lamps fueled by blood and shape shifting wings.
