A robot which is learning how to be socially aware and move through pedestrian environments by observing behaviour is being developed by Stanford University.

The idea is to create an algorithm which can be used by any robot to learn the social conventions of the place it is in at the time, he added. BBC Click's Spencer Kelly reports.

If you are a fan of the award-winning science fiction programme Firefly then you won't want to miss Spencer's (very geeky) chat with the show's visual effects supervisor Loni Peristere.
