Tomorrow's World - 14 October 1982
The technology that allows you to operate a computer by simply touching its screen is premiered in this edition of the science magazine programme. The presenters also explore a new technique that promises to revolutionise cardiac bypass surgery and discover why sniffing robots are helping Britain's car industry. Finally, an item about a new type of water pouch developed for athletes gives Peter Macann an excuse to slip into his wetsuit.
In the mid-1980s, Peter Macann joined the crew of Richard Branson's 'Virgin Atlantic Challenger', which made two attempts to break the transatlantic world speed record. Peter made two documentaries about his experiences.
