01.01.1970 //Robots also can express the emotion.
Scientist from Swedish Goteborg, Matthias Jacobson, colleague the "laboratories of the future applications" of the institute of Victorias, made a breakthrough in the robot technology.
Engineer created the group of the uncommon robots Roboxer, capable of associate both with his owner and, etc. with each other. In the case of detecting anything surprising, the robots can exchange information and together give estimation to finding. GlowBot Outwardly looks like round flat object by size tea to circle. It is equipped with eight infrared sensors, 148 by colored light-emitting diodes, capable of ignite separately, by camera, by three microphones, by triaxial accelerometer, by electro motors and by wheels, by dynamic loudspeaker, by computer for management of entire this economy and by wireless connection Bluetooth.
The contact of such machines occurs not by words, but because of the change of the diverse pictures, comprised of the flames on their backs; moreover these are the not predetermined pictures - machines can generate their not infinite number depending on their... mood. If pair of tens Roboxer let go "at liberty", then each will show the unique version of figure. But in the case, when two such robots are encountered, they exchange information about their flames and together is created more complex ornament.
As a result, in the course of time the figures on the robots very far depart from the initial, reflecting in a certain kind social interaction of such machines. GlowBot is capable to share with its kinsmen by the fact that it survived - shows to "emotion".
This changes of the models of figures on the backs of neighbors and further, on the chain, it affects flames on the following robots. "this is not similar to the relations, which the masters erect with the tomcat or the dog, says the author of this uncommon project. - it is faster, this experience will be interesting to man, whom draws breeding spiders or lizards ". But as a whole, the owners of these machines frequently give to them nicknames, and generally they relate as to the domestic animals.
