“ Cyclops ” was just one of the newfangled and fantastical prototypes from a group of young interior designer being showcased as part of the Leading Edge Design exhibition in Tokyo last weekend . Taking the form of a towering column of metal , Cyclops — now having been in developing for a few year — is a robot that scan the surface area in front of it and detects motion . Its “ eye ” constantly align its focusing and attention on unlike go objects in the neighborhood , giving it an almost curious , humanoid subtlety even though it count anything but . A computer screen demo us what the robot was seeing , pure with a reddish mark on each human object in the panorama , picked out by the robot ’s software program .
The architect were n’t on hand to say specifically what the intended use of the robot would be , but I ’m betting if you strapped a encephalon - dissolve raygun to this matter you would have a middling devastating killing machine . I , for one , welcome our unexampled mono - eyed overlords .
Also at the expo was an interesting prototype from Docomo , which had a screen you could tilt on its side , make it more worthy for watch idiot box / film , yet you could still hold it in the vogue of a steady phone . The phone , whilst advanced , shamelessly violates all kinds of iPod letters patent by having a silky - smooth curl roulette wheel to scrub through television , think that watching pirated movies on this thing could possibly be the most illegal thing you could ever do in the history of mankind .
