DesignInMotion has a description of the creation of the awesome opening credits within the film, along with three QT movies, #1, #2, #3

Addendum: I feel compelled to mention Steve Johnson's XFX, Inc, who designed and built the animatronics and wearable robot suit that Robin Williams wore throughout the film. The technical skill and details involved are discussed in this article, and blew me away. I think I'd really like to work for XFX now! NASA was heavily involved in the suit and animatronic design process, too.
