The Future Is Now!

It’s a future where robots will tell on you if you smoke at a gas station. Shell and Microsoft are collaborating on this. Artificial intelligence will spot what it thinks is someone smoking and send a screenshot to a gas station manager. They're testing it out in Taiwan.

The Future Is Now!

Welcome to a future where skin is robotic. A Yale researcher made it in hopes of making robotics more versatile for NASA. It can be used to animate every day objects, like a stuffed animal, essentially turning it into a robot. It's not just for making toys come to life. They can attach it to people to track or even assist range of motion.
