Humanoid robots are coming. But today, those tools are very expensive. But that’s always the case with new technology. New tools are expensive. The main question about humanoid robots is how safe they are. If. Those systems are not safe. They should not be sold. There is always a possibility. Those robots may malfunction. Another thing that we must consider is that hackers can capture those robots. Or their owners may want to use them as robot soldiers. Or. As robot bank robbers. In the same way. Humanoid robots. They are dual-use tools. Same as all other robots. The AI chatbots. They make it easier to operate and program those vehicles.
This means. That. Robot hovers can be transformed into unmanned ground vehicles. They could use wheels, or they can be air-cushion vehicles (ACV). They can carry mines. Or make reconnaissance missions. The ACV can travel across a minefield. How can those systems operate in rough terrain? That depends on the air cushion. Or the drag’s height.
That keeps the air cushion inside it. UGV. That carries. A land mine can drive under the targeted vehicle’s wheels. UGV/ACV. Have ultimate amphibious ability. They can travel across a defended beach and attack bunkers. The UGV can also carry anti-tank weapons. On. Its back. The UGVs operate alongside other drones. And. Manned vehicles. The UGV can look like regular cars. But those vehicles can carry internal explosives, or even nuclear warheads.
Above: FireAnt UGVs. Those vehicles can be inside the armoured personnel carriers, like “Bradley”.
And those robot hovers. They can also spy on their owners. The problem is that. There are always people. Who want to misuse those systems. And this is why. Humanoid robots must be equipped with systems. That tell if somebody wants to reprogram them. And there must be something. That tells if the operator wants to use their janitor robot as a bank robber.
Humanoid robots will come into shops. Their price is high. Because. They are new tools in the market. Remote-controlled humanoid robots. They use an optical wire. For. Data transmission. They could operate in highly radioactive areas. And maybe those humanoid robots can build the first Moon bases and Mars bases. Those robots can also operate in the deep seas. And that makes them very good tools also for scientific work. The problem is that. Those robots can also act as robot warriors. Otherwise, robot warriors. They must not look like humans at all.
