The clever scientists at the CSIRO Autonomous Systems Laboratory in Australia have created a super sneaky autonomous robot.
This robotic vehicle is capable of detecting sounds in its environment and then it will calculate how long those sounds will last for. It uses this information to plan its movements so it can travel around unheard while humans are distracted by other noises. Yet unnamed, this stealth bot could be camouflaged as an every-day object, outfitted with cameras or recording devices and sent as a spy on top-secret investigations. It could also be used to study animals in the wild without disturbing them.
This sneaky autonomous robot could have many practical uses, hopefully it never becomes self-aware.
Stealthy Silent Cyborgs
The CSIRO Autonomous Robot is a Super Sneaky Tool
Trend Themes
1. Sound-detecting Autonomous Vehicles - There is an opportunity to develop autonomous vehicles that can detect sounds in their environment to plan movements or actions.
2. Stealth Robots - There is an opportunity to create stealth robots that can go undetected while performing a specific task, such as spying or studying animals.
3. Camouflaged Surveillance Robots - There is an opportunity to create robots that can blend in with everyday objects while outfitted with cameras or recording devices, and used in top-secret investigations or surveillance.
Industry Implications
1. Security and Surveillance - This could disrupt the security and surveillance industry by providing a new tool for spying or surveillance.
2. Wildlife Research and Conservation - This could disrupt the wildlife research and conservation industry by enabling researchers to study animals in the wild without disturbing them.
3. Military and Defense - This could disrupt the military and defense industry by enabling the creation of stealth robots for reconnaissance and other top-secret missions.
