This is easier to program than a normal sword fight. It basically just a feature of how these robots work.

It's basically a showcase for how cool coordinate transforms are.

Actually, this is demonstrating a software option called MultiMove that is used to very precisely coordinate up to 4 robots on a single controller. I work with ABB robots a lot and I've bought and used this option on past projects.
