sentinals... I mean sentries in production

Ok, so - some company in Japan is readying up thier line of robo-helpers meant to walk around assisting people in finding stuff at public events, in cities, etc.  Yes.  You read correctly.  walk around, and interact with humans.  AWESOME.

so - when they decide to enforce the 3 prime directives with just a little bit more force, remember that you read it here.

its a crowd monitoring robot.  if all goes well, he will remember the location of your car.  or, he will decide that humans are no longer needed, terminate most of us and then use the rest of us as a living power source.

egads.  awesome.
