FROG has appeared on what is considered to be the most viewed television channel in Europe – TF1! A French film crew came to talk to the researchers during an integration and experimentation week at the Royal Alcázar in Seville:

Sometimes we have to be tough! In June the FROG researchers were kept behind bars for hours at a time – all for the sake of integration.
Though, sometimes, we try other methods!
FROG has a new friend. Piggy just arrived one morning to help the researchers. Was he a mascot or a spirit guide? We may never know! But somehow when things got exciting Piggy was heard to snort an encouraging: “oink-oink!”.
If there is a fountain of knowledge, then surely, this must be it: it’s full of researchers!
By the way, the Royal Alcázar is not keen on people misusing their fountains in this way.
One afternoon, during field tests at the Royal Alcazar in Seville FROG was confronted with preparations for an outdoor dinner. These tables had not been there in the morning.
We are pleased to be able to say that FROG navigated the tables without mishaps. Flapping table cloths were a bit of a mystery – but one that can be solved with simple table cloth weights.
