The video shows a man standing on a stage in front of a large TED sign. He is wearing a gray shirt and jeans and is holding a remote control in his hand. Next to him is a robot that is white and blue in color. The man is speaking to the audience and making hand gestures as he talks. The robot is stationary and does not move during the video. The stage is well-lit and the background is dark, focusing the viewer's attention on the man and the robot.
