Special guest Baxter the robot opened a new facility today (WED) that will see the UK at the forefront of robot technology.
The friendly machine, who was produced to take over the monotonous tasks on a production line, had the honourable job of cutting the ribbon at the #4.3million National Facility for Innovative Robotic Systems.
Based at Leeds University, the centre has the most advanced robot building equipment in the country - including one of the world's largest multi-material 3D printers, and a laser beam that can cut diamonds.
