Skynet Research Goes On-Line

Skynet Bots

Skynet Research has had robots operating in undisclosed locations for a while now, and it’s only recently that we’ve gotten some more information about what this clandestine robotics and artificial intelligence company has been working on recently. Obviously, Skynet has been focusing primarily on military assets, such as the MAGS (Mobile Aerial Ground Support) urban warfare quadraped in the above picture, which features a squadron of autonomous surveillance microdrones. However, they also have a fabrication assembly bot and a search and rescue robot, among other non-classified products.

Trossen Robotics talked to one of the Skynet researchers, and learned about some of the new hardware and software under development: “The Model 101 Enhancement Module that is being provided for evaluation is some sort of Neural Networking microprocessor with built in wifi capability, used for relaying sensory data back to a central AI hub that is scheduled to go online in the near future.” AWESOME! I can’t WAIT for that to happen. It’ll be the beginning of a bright new future for the human race, full of happy robots doing whatever we want them to and protecting us from weapons of mass destruction and stuff. Yay!!!

Skynet Research is also interested in your robotics ideas, and if they like your concept, they might give you some of their hardware to play around with. Read the Skynet community development press release, after the jump.

Skynet Research is a leader in the research and development of robotic technology, dedicated to helping the human race achieve great goals. And we want to hear from you!

CALL FOR ROBOTIC DESIGNS

Skynet Research believes every individual holds the capacity to make a difference, and is dedicated to finding as many people as possible who will impact our future goals.

* The spark of imagination is the greatest asset of humankind. We are interested in mining this resource within the robotics community to find new robot designs.

* Individuals are welcome to submit designs, videos and schematics relating to future robot models. We will showcase the most promising for all to see on our corporate website.

SKYNET RESEARCH IS OFFERING A FREE UPGRADE

As part of our ever-increasing outreach, we are also making available the Skynet Research Enhancement Module Model 101 for consumer grade robots at no cost before it is even available in stores.

* The Model 101 is compatible with any home robotics device, and will vastly improve the precision, efficiency and speed of any mechanized apparatus regardless of function.

* You may apply to receive one on our website.
* View a video of our new Enhancement Module HERE

Sad to say… but what the DIYers are doing is a lot more interesting than what Warners (you know, the Youtube-censoring ones) are doing.

Real trumps fake. This is fake.

Sorry.
