Alien Empire

Since the dawn of time they have been in conflict with the human race: invading our homes, building sophisticated colonies and using high-tech weapons. Mankind is slowly losing this War of the Worlds against the ultimate Alien. The Insect. Alien Empire shows how well equipped they are for the fight. Their skeleton is a design miracle, their incredible communication systems include on board sensors and transmitters for emitting sound and light signals and their societies are fantastically organised. Alien Empire draws on the latest techniques in robotics and artificial intelligence, along with state-of-the-art computer animation and graphics to open the doors into a world we have never seen. Miniature cameras, straightscopes and endoscopes shrink the viewer to allow a fascinating in-depth view of the insect kingdom. © BBC
