Here we have to mention that all these SF writings and many others that have existed over time, especially in the 20th century, have influenced alongside obvious screenings, young people and not just them, to think more about our role, robots, into a better world. The robot's key role is to help the man make his work easier, safer, more enjoyable, just like a computerized machine that helps us work faster and better, the robot has an obvious role in making work easier, to work in our place when we are tired, when work is exhausting and repetitive, when the environment is toxic, hostile, dangerous and in many other situations. However, it is time to say that the role of the robot in the future is altogether another, namely, to help us conquer the cosmic space to expand ourselves as a race in the whole universe in which we are now. In fact, this is the robot's humanitarian role and in the future, it can be developed and prepared just for that purpose. Exploratory robots are robots that operate in hard-to-reach and dangerous locations, telegraph or partially autonomous. They can work for example in a region in military conflict, on the Moon or on Mars. A geared navigation on the ground in the last two cases is impossible due to distance. Communication signals arrive at their destination in a matter of hours and their reception lasts as long. In such situations, robots have to be programmed with several types of behavior, from which they choose the most appropriate and execute it. This type of robot equipped with sensors was also used to research pyramid wells. Several cryobots (cryo robots) have already been tested by NASA in Antarctica. This type of robot can reach up to 3,600 m through the ice. Cryobots can thus be used in polar head research on Mars and Europe in the hope of alien living. NASA has always said that understanding how to live and work in space for long periods of time has been a key goal of the International Space Station. But, from the White House, it may seem expensive this race around the Earth, considering that the mission costs about $ 8 million a day. Space makes us anxious. We are anxious that things go smoothly as if space flight should be infallible like a flight to London. And we are looking forward to a return on investment. We fly in space because of human ambition, because nothing gives us more resistance than trying to do what we have not done before. And we're flying in space because space is the eighth continent. We may eventually need asteroid or lunar resources, depending on how we manage the resources we have here on Earth. Eventually, we should become a species that will conquer other planets, whether we are no longer inside or that we actually destroy it or it will be destroyed.

Boeing's Autonomous Military Aircraft

Journal of Aircraft and Spacecraft Technology

2019

Boeing will build a self-propelled military aircraft to accompany US combat aircraft during missions. Boeing's autonomous airplane will achieve superior flying performance to those pilots even with the most modern aircraft. If technology advances and becomes more accessible to civilians, why would not this happen in the military domain? US, Russian, Australian and British armies have already been using advanced technology for decades were civilians just dream, these technologies being totally secret and forbidden to the general public and mass media. Boeing, which manufactures commercial and military aircraft, wants to revolutionize the "art of war" and introduce a state-of-the-art, self-propelled aircraft into the battlefield to adapt to a variety of complex military missions. They called it the Boeing Airpower Teaming System because it will team up well with military pilots during reconnaissance missions or even hostility or defensive missions. This autonomous airplane will play the role of additional help designed to significantly reduce the risks to which soldiers are often exposed. The stand-alone aircraft can be sent both on reconnaissance missions and for attack operations (either for defense or for the removal of targets considered terrorist). He will be able to intercept the enemy in good time and to annihilate it. It will be manufactured in Australia and it will have a length of more than 11 meters and Boeing promises autonomy of over 3,700 kilometers (2,000 nautical miles). Obviously, the company will not only produce for Americans or Australians. Any government will be able to purchase the autonomous airplane if it allows it (at least theoretically, because sales of such products are basically also with special political agreements). It is very likely that in the future, we will not even have much need for soldiers if the missions are carried out by autonomous airplanes or robots. Good news, as democracies have come to pay citizens to motivate them to become soldiers.

Face Recognition as a Biometric Application

Journal of Mechatronics and Robotics

2019

A facial recognition system is a technology capable of identifying or verifying a person from a digital image or a video frame from a video source. There are multiple methods in which facial recognition systems work, but in general, they work by comparing selected facial features from the given image with faces within a database. It is also described as a Biometric Artificial Intelligence-based application that can uniquely identify a person by analyzing patterns based on the person's facial textures and shape. While initially a form of computer application, it has seen wider uses in recent times on mobile platforms and in other forms of technology, such as robotics. It is typically used as access control in security systems and can be compared to other biometrics such as fingerprint or eye iris recognition systems. Although the accuracy of facial recognition system as biometric technology is lower than iris recognition and fingerprint recognition, it is widely adopted due to its contactless and noninvasive process. Recently, it has also become popular as a commercial identification and marketing tool. Other applications include advanced humancomputer interaction, video surveillance, automatic indexing of images and video database, among others. The use of facial recognition has recently become a very debatable subject and has been criticized more and more because it was considered an unethical tool used to spy on the public. The reason for such criticism is, however, largely due to the lack of information and regulation of this technology. Used proportionally and responsibly, facial recognition can and should be beneficial. It has the capacity to do much more to increase security in the future-from street crime to airport security. Armed war crime has dominated UK titles throughout the year. Recent statistics indicate that the number of people who benefited from the emergency assistance due to armed attacks increased by almost 40% compared to the two years ago, while the number of children under 18 years of age with stab wounds is increasing by 86 % in only four years. Face recognition has become a normal activity in many airports around the world. Many people today have a so-called biometric passport that allows them to go faster to the gate without having to be controlled. The facial recognition used in this way has significantly reduced waiting times for passport control but also has the ability to increase security in and around airports. Face recognition thus allows officers to identify an individual more quickly and accurately than the human eye. While some critics may worry about technology-related confidentiality issues, airports have shown that the use of facial recognition has improved security as well as speeding up processes such as check-in and in the future, even procedures boarding. When used correctly and proportionally, facial recognition can help protect the public and improve national security on multiple fronts. Similarly, advanced technology can recognize a person seen on CCTV security syste...
