November 3, 2006 - 9:31 AM : Related Entries - Far East

Samsung has partnered with Korea university and developed the
machine-gun equipped robotic sentry. It is equipped with two cameras
with zooming capabilities one for day time and one for infrared night
vision. It has a sophisticated pattern recognition which can detect the
difference between humans and trees, and a 5.5mm machine-gun. The robot
also has a speaker to warn the intruder to surrender or get a perfect
headshot. The robots will go on sale by 2007 for $ 200,000 and will be
deployed on the border between North and South Korea.
