In Europe, there are two main thematic groups focusing on

robotics, the Climbing and Walking Robots (CLAWAR)

project (http://www.clawar.net) and the European Robotics

Network (EURON) project (http://www.euron.org).

The two networks are complementary: CLAWAR is

industrially focused on the immediate needs, and EURON is

focused more on blue skies research. This article presents the activities of the CLAWAR project

View of the upper apse; Assisted by Robert de Cotte. The two-storey royal chapel at Versailles, begun in 1699 to plans prepared in 1689, has a Classical order of tall Corinthian columns at the upper level where the King's gallery, entered from his suite in the château, was placed; these columns support an entablature from which the vault springs, and they lend an air of nobility and lightness to the chapel. Ceiling was painted by Antoine Coypel. Source: Grove Art Online; http://www.groveart.com/ (accessed 1/12/2008
