Five for Fri – Robots

Because everyone loves robots… even Jesus!

Buyer beware: This harmless looking robot is just a decoy. We all know the “Chinese are inventing fire-breathing robot armies to destroy Christian America! And anyone in their right mind fears a gigantic Godless firebreathing robot designed to burn the life out of all things good and moral.”

Let me introduce you to a kinder, gentler robot. Tweenbots are simple motorized cardboard bots created by New Yorker, Kacie Kinzer, that rely on human interaction to reach their destination. Dependent on human empathy for anthropomorphic objects, these robots travel throughout the city, unharmed, and amazingly, they always achieve their mission.
Designed at the University of Pennsylvania, this robot is made of modules that can recognize each other and it can reassemble itself after it’s been pulled apart. Not quite sure what else it can do, but I’m guessing it’s just a preliminary prototype for the life-sized, blazing sword-wielding, Voltron we’ve all been waiting for. You know, because the only use for robots is to destroy our adversaries in battle. King Zarkon, be forewarned.


More proof that robots are evil:


For brevity’s sake, I’ll just link you to the next video. In the future, we'll all need to know how to speak robot language in order to protect ourselves from their fiery breath of destruction.
