Living machine 3

During the documentary I learned that in Tokyo they have created a humanoid project. Japan is the leader when it comes to building humanoid body. In Massachusetts their is a engineer that create the brains of the robots mind. The mind is the most important part in the robot because just like every living thing the brain create the ability to tell our body what do. Even though robots might have a mind and a body in the mere future fear of robots taking over the world is still there. Now engineers are trying to create a robot that take a beating and still get the job done, and create a robot that can act and react like a actual living organism. In a university in Spitsbergen a engineer I trying to create a robots that can think better then a human being. I think that a robot can and can not be a harm to human being because a robot can always help human beings and an robot can always harm one.For example if I was to create a robot to for the military the objective for the robot is to go in and win the war so none of our soldiers will have to die in battle again that's one way a robot can help and harm a human being or if i create a robot to help the elderly. I think robot should just stay robots even though it might be cool to have a humanoid and a friend or at home because if we as people have the power to create a robot to do what ever we want then we also have to power to misuse that power like money we can spent it on our needs or our wants. How is going to stop someone from creating a robot to rob a bank or kill the president if we find a way to create a humanoid then that way will some how be misused. In case many people haven't notice if you give a group of people the power over or of something the majority of them misuses the power and only a few uses it for or the greater good, their for I think robots should just stay robots

Living Machine 2

During the documentary I've learned that the U.S and Japan are competing among each other and are creating the came robot and trying to make each robot better then each other the reason for this is cause money is involved. I've also learned that In the military there are robots that are also created to search for hostel situations there's also drowns spy plane that gains information about the battle field along with missiles. missiles are also considered as robots and there very intelligent they can change course during flight and stay roof top level and still find their target. Saga is also a arcade that makes you feel like your in the game they feel your movement and feeling. There are also robots like the creep keeper which is nothing but plastic stretch out over a robotic body and is being controlled by an another robotic technique in this case of set of the movie there is a man who uses a helmet and gloves to control the movement of the robotic puppet so basically all the puppet is doing is mirroring the movement of the man in the outfit and the voice comes from the software. though the generation man kind have been trying to find a was to create an artificial human being using technology and every generation the thought of artificial being gets stronger and stronger cause as the knowledge of technology grows we get closer to finding a way to create an artificial being. I think the fear or the thought of and artificial being has not been decided  because the world is not ready to have robots gain control base on the fear of what a robot can or might do to us.                      

Living machine

During the documentary I've learned that we've be finding ways to copy living thing and making robots  to not only act like the creature they're duplicated to but to behave like them. For instance an ant communicates with other ants when they need help or they found food.A robotic engineer found a way to create multiple robots to act and communicate like ants.Robotic engineers are getting closer and closer to making robots that actually act like living thing such as another engineer who created a robotic baby who can feel and react to what your doing to it if you shack it feed it and hold it up side down it knows. In another robotic lab engineers created aquatic animals like fish to copy and create and create water proof robots t o help in underwater task like if to were in the military  and there are water mine there will be robot there to sacrifice them-self first to reduce the death of soldiers. or when your a studying aquatic life you can send a robot to record and study how the aquatic animal acts and live. There's also a engineer who is trying to bring back dinosaurs using the technology he already know how to make like duplicating and making robots walk and also making them acting like other living things.        

Robotic care bear.

In Japan the people are facing a aging population. Which mean that there's more people that are in need of care and less people that can provide the help so Japan found a solution to their little problem. The solution to the problem is a robotic care bear. This robotic bear was created by the RIKEN and Sumitomo Riko Company. The bear is an experimental nursing care robot combines advance robotics and a non-threatening design. This robot not only going to make up for shortage of carers but to save human personal from having to carry out strenuous tasks such as lifting a patients out of bed and in to a wheelchair about 40 times a day. the bear will be able to help patients out of bed, stand and turn to prevent bed sore. The robots weights about 308 lb but to RIBA-2's weights about 507 lb so it'll be no problem lifting patients every single day. According to RIKEN the robot have improved is has very low gear ratio actuators  that makes it joints fast to responded. They also have a backdrivability- In other words a feedback mechanism that makes softer movement. the robot bear also haves torque sensors and smart rubber capacitance-type tactile sensors for gentle movement.
