Sgt. Willard of the U. S. Army shows off some of the Army's newest technology called a PackBot. This robot is designed to go places that danger is too high to have a human presence. According to Sgt. Willard the robot normally has an arm attached to interact with the environment it is sent into. For example, if it is sent into a bomb site the bomb can be retrieved and brought out without any risk of losing a life.
