Very nice CGI. Totally crap design of a robot - but nice CGI.

Somehow, I think a police robot is going to be covered in 10mm armour, will not carry a weapon, have 360 degree vision, (Two eyes suck!) and be substantially larger than the one depicted.

Also, somehow, I can't accept a police robot firing at human beings. There's just NO WAY anyone is going to accept that. A robot has no moral code which could permit it to decide when (or who!) to shoot. (Remember ED-109 in robocop?)

Robots are great recon devices - but leave the shooting to the humans please! Dumb-a$s CGI designers. Brilliant at rendering, stupid as a door-post in design. I think Jerry Bruckheimer might have been involved... :P

Obligatory correct-Mobius's-grammar post:

Wanna check it? Send it to your friend the copy editor; he'll vouch for me. ;)

DISCLAIMER: This post contributed just as much to the thread as Mobius's; that is, it did not contribute at all.

The USA has already armed the remotely operated "recon" planes and destroyed tanks with hellfire missiles. Cruise missiles are essentually flying robotic bombs. They have already made a lot of progress in the transition to machines fighting instead of humans.

That was the ED-209. Remember... YOU HAVE 2 SECONDS TO COMPLY!

I'm thinkin Nitro that it might be super-imposed CGI, kinda like golem.

And Mobius, if I heard the vid correctly, this is a remote patrol bot. That is, it's a camera with legs for cops. A drone.

Still a wicked vid. I love that shot where he takes a hit.
