The Nightmare in Silicon Valley: 8 horror technologies that should scare you to death
Every night is fright night with what can happen once these scary technologies take hold in ways that you may not have imagined.
Some robots are designed to be cute and approachable. This is not that gallery.
Why not build a robot capable of stinging people? That was the question engineers at the University of Ghent asked before setting off on the task of building a six-legged scorpion. The scorpion responds to interactions and can move in all directions. Fortunately, the stinger in this case is a harmless red marker. But it wouldn't be tough to rig the tip of the tail with something more harmful.
