[Engineers] have tried to mimic the bats’ biosonar systems by designing a veritable zoo of bat robots. Indeed, reproducing the biosonar abilities of bats in a man-made system would do far more than just satisfy a scientist's intellectual curiosity or an engineer's play instinct. Engineers working in the broad area of autonomous systems, in other words, machines that can act by themselves, have long dreamed of taking the capabilities of their creations to new levels, and bats could be just the right model system to accomplish this. 1, record 1, English, - bat%20robot

La flexibilité de l'aile de chauve-souris est beaucoup plus grande que celle des ailes d'oiseaux ou d'insectes généralement étudiées jusqu'ici. La membrane en silicone ultrafine (56 µ [microns]) et très élastique de l'aile du robot chauve-souris forme une surface continue flexible. Pour s'affranchir des contraintes mécaniques, notamment de poids, elle n'est commandée que par un nombre réduit d'actuateurs qui reproduisent les degrés de liberté dominants (DOF) du vol de la vraie chauve-souris. 1, record 1, French, - robot%20chauve%2Dsouris

Un zoo la nuit est un film canadien réalisé par Jean-Claude Lauzon, sorti en 1987. Un ancien taulard violé dans sa cellule retrouve son père avec lequel il parviendra enfin à éprouver de l'affection et à communiquer. Il doit échapper à des policiers corrompus qui savent qu'il avait caché quelque part une importante somme d'argent et de la cocaïne pour la durée de son incarcération. Alors que le père est mourant, son fils lui organise une dernière partie de chasse à l'orignal. Il l'apporte au zoo, où il pense être certain d'en trouver un. Lorsqu'il constate son erreur, il suggère à son père de tuer l'éléphant. La scène est envoûtante, mêlée à la voix de Jacques Brel qui chante Voir un ami pleurer. Un zoo la nuit montre l'humanité et l'amour, à travers la nuit et le désespoir. 2, record 11, French, - Un%20zoo%20la%20nuit
