Posts from Help us create the perfect combat robot. Auto-translated

A topic for tech enthusiasts. I'll start by saying that this is quite important to me, as I need to write my university dissertation on this very topic. It's true that I have a couple of technical science doctors helping me, but personally, I think they are already 50 years behind with their analog devices. So, share your ideas if you have any. Just to remind you, by 2015, the Americans were planning to create a fully robotic army, something between robots and cyborgs. My version of the ideal robot soldier:
- Controlled via a camera with elements of artificial intelligence
- Android - has arms and legs
- Armament - plasma grenades, a laser, and a machine gun for destroying enemy forces.

And in 2111, all people will become cyborgs anyway.

right to the point)))

- Control via a camera with elements of artificial intelligence
- Android has arms and legs
- Armament - plasma grenades, laser, and a machine gun for destroying enemy forces.

It would be worth adding this:
- Neutron grenade launcher to counter heavy equipment.
- Positron null transmitter. Provides remote communication not based on electromagnetic radiation, so eavesdropping by the enemy will be impossible.
- Tachyon generator. As you know, the efficiency of such generators exceeds 100%. So this will allow your robots to serve the Motherland for a long time.

(as a last resort, a portable thermonuclear reactor can be used, but the Americans already have something like that).

Don't forget the coffee maker and toaster, otherwise the battle robot won't be a real battle robot :smile20:

Forget it, we're all going to die in 2012 anyway, so why do we need robots for 2015?

The most important thing is the AI. Otherwise, it will be as dumb as the AI in Heroes, and any newbie will beat it. And also, a backpack with wires, so that it can repair itself if needed. Americans will also be pleased with a sound device so that it can sing the national anthem and name all the presidents.

No, the AI is AI, and by definition, it's unintelligent. Robots should definitely be controlled by humans, and even better – remotely. And why has everyone forgotten about such a necessary thing as a **torsional protective field**? Without such protective fields, you can't go anywhere these days; they'll tear you to shreds in no time. Also, you could add a **quantum teleportation device based on zero-point energy** for instant teleportation behind enemy lines and subsequent annihilation of everything, but that's optional.

The ideal is already conceived!

- Control via a camera with elements of artificial intelligence
- The android has arms and legs
- Armament: plasma grenades, a laser, and a machine gun for destroying enemy forces.

The first point is completely unnecessary. It is enough for a person to control the priority in selecting targets with the possibility of manual adjustment.
The second point is also not necessary, because the robot should be small in size and have blocks of electronic warfare protection, jamming devices, and systems for suppressing enemy communication and targeting systems. In addition, it should have high maneuverability and the ability to move freely on walls and ceilings. Most likely, something spider-like will result. :smile04:
As for the armament, it will not be possible to create compact energy weapons even in 2020, as they require a lot of energy. Generators of such capacity cannot be placed even in a tank. Ranged weapons are also not an option, as they make the robot dependent on ammunition supplies. Such a robot should have incredible speed, a compact size, cutting tools for destroying enemy forces, and an integrated bomb for eliminating armored vehicles. :smile14:

p.s. The film "Screamers" inspired this. :smile04:

Ranged weaponry is also not an option, as it makes the robot dependent on ammunition supply.

Well, any infantryman depends on supply. The only difference is that one puts his own head on the line, while the other puts a machine at risk.

In "screamer" maps, everyone lost.

We need something realistic, General.
