Robot fish unveiled

A sea bream swimming in a water tank is not a real one but a robot developed by Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, Ltd. Measuring 60 centimeters long and weighing 2.6 kilograms, it swims at a speed of 25 cm per second on a set of built-in batteries embedded inside the body. Mitsubishi says the robot, that costs ''between tens and hundreds million yen'' including a tank and remote-control device, will be made available in other fish species. ==Kyodo
