Like you, we assumed that the University of Pennsylvania (http://www.engadget.com/tag/university%20of%20pennsylvania/) robotics team wouldn't be able to top the wow factor of that amazing video of Quadrocopters playing the James Bond theme (http://www.engadget.com/2012/02/29/mini-quadrotors-play-bond-james-bond-video/), but if this doesn't best it, it sure comes close. Marvel as a quadrocopter, RC truck and a team of scale shipping-containers-turned-autonomous-robotic-boats band together to aid a wood artist's model. It's quite the site to behold, and according to the University, all the researchers have to do is tell the boats the final shape -- in this case a curved, floating bridge. Video's after the break.
