The Security Robot

Everyone recognises the iconic image above. Paul Verhoevan's distopian classic, about a cop killed in the line of duty then re-assembled as the ultimate cop/cyborg remains, in my eyes, a Science-fiction classic.

Combine the idea of the security-bot with the Japanese love and fascination of anything robotic, and you arrive at the T-34.

Although not as cool, or human-looking as Murphy, the T-34 moves at 6mph on small wheels and is controlled in real time via a series of images sent to a mobile phone. However, you are more likely to laugh than scream in terror at the sight of this dinky machine.

But how can this R2D2 of security robots defend himself, or detain potential criminals ? Well, the T-34 is equipped with a Net throwing device that can entrap the unsuspecting bad-guy. TAKE THAT!!!
