RoboSoldier
Yea, robot killerz in the house, yo!
Sorry, but I guess I’m feeling extra white and had to make up for it. In any case, the US military is working toward that whole Terminator/Skynet thing one mecahnized soldier at a time. Now, it’s a robot that breaks Asimov’s First Law. (For those of you who aren’t Ubergeeks like me, that’s Asimov’s First Law of Robotics, or, “A robot may not injure a human being, or through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm.”) But, that first article is just the most recent one in the popular press. This has actually been around since January of 2006 and they’ve been deployed in Iraq since February of that same year. But, if those two killer robots aren’t cool enough for you, homes, try the automated sentry gun. Think of it as an entry-level Terminator.
(Hey, at least this should be the last of the old posts that I’d been “saving” for a rainy day!)
