"In research on swimming one problem is it is hard to know how much propulsive force the hands create during the stroke."There's a book called Swimming Fastest which may help unlock the mystery.

Next version will be able to take three dolphin kicks on breaststroke pullouts. It also features a $25,000 "grill."

Pretty soon it will be able to talk with sports reporters in three different languages and pass a doping test.

That's about stupid. If you are going to build a robot that swims, why would you make it humaniod in form? Robotuna is way cooler: www.engadget.com/.../
