Robot soldiers still need human help
The U.S. government plans according to their roadmap around a third of its fighting force by 2015, robots move on. 127 billion U.S. dollars in the country would spend the next 20 years for military robotics projects, the BBC writes in a report to military scenarios for the future of robotics. Even today, countless so-called Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs), are known as drones in use. However, this must still be controlled manually by a person or at least controlled, but this can also happen on the other side of the globe.
Until robots can move completely independently in the war, it is probably still a long way. Sticking point is the correct understanding of objects and contexts of meaning, said Joe Dyer, iRobot COO of robotics pioneer, the BBC. "We just Kabbes because at the corners," said Dyer, the state of the art. If robots once the development of five-to six-year old children have, the world would change dramatically.
If it were up technology-prophet and author Ray Kurzweil, 2019 had normal computers, the computing power of the human brain. Thus, the robot could then independently decide the way to find out who is friend or foe, and take independent decisions. Some projects already have a robot amazing progress in their artificial intelligence. The LS3 also "Alphadog ', can independently find their way from A to B and carry weight around 180kg. The main task of the walking machine are areas that should not be traversed by humans.
Even in the civilian environment robots have been used for several years of practical use, such as in disaster relief. The large-scale use began with the attacks of 11 September, where the robot had its way through the smallest gaps in the rubble cope. A recent example of the use of these helpers is the atomic ruins of Fukushima, where they appear very high radiation doses. They are deadly for humans, robots can shield basically so far, however, that the radiation does not interfere with the electronics.
