EL-E robot to smother grandma, crush your Aibo
researchers at the Georgia Institute of Technology are developing robots that mimic the relationship between humans and their canine helpers.
Industrious robotics researchers have done it again -- those geniuses are sure to put us upon the brink of cataclysm.
The latest version of El-E has been upgraded so that, in addition to responding to a laser pointer, it understands voice commands and can perform a wider range of tasks.
By "performing a wider range of tasks", we can conclude that means "value added features" such as:
- menacing family and children
- pilfering your personal possessions
- crushing your larynx
How long will it take before El-E helps to start the robot uprising?
