Robotic Gun programmed to track Humans and shoot them in the heart!


Quoting from the creators’ web site:

The idea of this project was to create a fully-automated sentry gun, capable of picking out a human target and accurately tracking and shooting him or her in the heart.

This invention looks so cool and I loved it at the first sight, but,Oh my god! Where is the humanity going to?

They used Microsoft’s DirectShow technology and OpenCV library to read the pixels and translate them into targets and command the motors to move and shoot.

Japanese develop ‘female’ android

Japanese scientists have unveiled the most human-looking robot yet – a “female” android named Repliee Q1Expo.

She has flexible silicone for skin rather than hard plastic, and a number of sensors and motors to allow her to turn and react in a human-like manner.

This looks like the begining for Robots to rule the world 😛

Cya 😉
