Computers and dogs are the mankind's best friends

The artificial intelligence has bought one question in my mind, and that is ”should robots of tomorrow have some kind of rights”. If the machine has the capacity to show emotions, does it really have feelings? This is the very big philosophical question in the robotics and the next generation computing, where the robot itself might be ”only the machine”, but it is connected with the central computer by using mobile data solutions. In this scenario, the robot, what might look like the human, works like some dog for its master computer. The robots like "Jason Junior" (Picture 1) can be used to communicate with the extremely trained Dolphins and Sea Lions as the "relay station", what will dive with those animals.

When we are talking about the communication with animals, we must consider, that the communication of the whales and other animals have been recorded. And the recorded voices have been played to those animals to find out, what those voices will mean. And the behavior of the swarm of the whales or sharks has been used to find out, what the whales are talking. The observers will use cameras and microphones for making comparisons and finding the similarities between the signals and behavior of those animals.


The behavior of the octopuses and chameleons what communicates by changing the color have investigated by using the computer screens, where is a film of those animals, to find out how they will communicate. And also the cameras are used to find out what any color in that animal skin means. And if octopus takes the white color, it means "angry" os "stay away"  because the female octopussy is white, when it guards the eggs. 


I got the idea of this thing by some picture of Greek philosopher Diogenes, who might be one of the first animal trainers in the history. The dogs in the tale of this man symbolize that this man could send them for handling some jobs for him, and if there would be the tag with the shopping list on the mouth of the dog, would that animal even go shopping for Diogenes. The robot itself has the multiple sensor-systems what allows it to collect and transmit the information to the computer center, where might be the computer, what is the size of the square kilometer. And that central computer can also communicate with the mobile telephones and WalkieTalkies if it has the standard radio transmitter in the use. The robots are not always made of steel. They might also be some animals that are controlled by loudspeaker system, what the supercomputer and its operators.


The Use of the biorobots like extremely trained dogs with the computers is the very attractive idea. When we are using the trained animal as the robot, would that solve many problems of the technology, but one thing has been forgotten, and that is the rights of those animals. The problem with the rights of the robots came in the public, when one of the NAVY SEAL military dogs were used in the arrest operation, what was targetted to Osama Bin Laden's hiding place in Afganistan. There have been also tested the Dolphins as the biorobots, what can carry the mines or other explosives in the enemy base, and those animals can be controlled by the midget submarine, what have been equipped with sonar, what gives the Dolphins the right commands. In this case, the system what is used can of course used by hunting the submarines under the sea.


In this scenario, the central computer will act like the master, who gives orders for the dog, and then the dog will do the missions, what the master gives to it. The master might use as the dog pipe, to give that animal the commands, but the computer uses secured data channels for communicate with the robot. This kind of system might be quite safe, because the communication line between computer center and the robot can be cut down, in the case where the computer starts to work like the way, what can harm the safety of human beings, but there is one problem.


If the warning of unauthorized operations will become the operator's screen too late, the results would be something, that we don't want to see.  In the real world, the master of the dog can use the loudspeakers, what will use the infra- or ultrasound for sending the commands to the animals, or they can use the voice files, what will give voices, what the man cannot create with our own mouth or voice organs.


In this scenario the operator might use the mobile telephone, where is the sound-files and other necessary software to control the dogs by using BlueTooth loudspeaker to give commands for those dogs, and that kind of devices can have simple interface, where the operator must only push the icon for giving commands for the animal, what might have action camera and radiotelephone in the collar. That equipment will give the change to use the dogs as the biorobots, and the attack order will be given by using the right icon, what gives the signal for the dog.

Chinese innovations and space lasers are interesting combinations.

Above: "Tiangong is China's operational space station located in low Earth orbit. (Image credit: Alejomiranda via Getty Images)" (Scpace.com, China's space station, Tiangong: A complete guide) Chinese are close to making nuclear-powered spacecraft.  Almost every day, we can read about Chinese technical advances. So are, the Chinese more innovative than Western people? Or is there some kind of difference in culture and morale between Western and Chinese societies? The Chinese superiority in hypersonic technology is one of the things that tells something about the Chinese way of making things.  In China, the mission means. And the only thing that means is mission. That means that things like budgets and safety orders are far different from Western standards. If some project serves the Chinese communist party and PLA (People's Liberation Army) that guarantees unlimited resources for those projects. Chinese authorities must not care about the public opinion.  If we th

Iron Dome is one of the most effective air defense systems.

The Iron Dome is a missile defense system whose missiles operate with highly sophisticated and effective artificial intelligence. The power of this missile defense base is in selective fire. The system calculates the incoming missile's trajectory. And it shoots only missiles that will hit the inhabited area. The system saves missiles and focuses defense on areas that mean something. The system shares the incoming missiles in, maybe two groups. Another is harmless and another is harmful.  Things like killer drones are also problematic because their trajectories are harder to calculate than ballistic missiles. The thing that makes drones dangerous is that they can make masks for ballistic missiles. And even if those drones are slow, all of them must be shot down.  The thing is that the cooperation between drone swarms and ballistic missiles is the next danger in conflict areas. In the film, you can see how drones make light images of the skies. The killer drones can also carry LED li

The innovative shield that protects OSIRIS-APEX can also protect the new hypersonic aircraft.

"NASA’s OSIRIS-APEX spacecraft successfully completed its closest solar pass, protected by innovative engineering solutions and showing improvements in onboard instruments. Credit: NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center/CI Lab" (ScitechDaily, Innovative Engineering Shields NASA’s OSIRIS-APEX During Close Encounter With the Sun) The OSIRIS-APEX probe travels close to the sun. The mission plan is to research the sun. And especially find things that can warn about solar storms. Solar storms are things that can danger satellites at the Earth orbiter. And the purpose of OSIRIS-APEX is to find the method of how to predict those solar storms. Another thing is that the OSIRIS-APEX tests the systems and materials that protect this probe against heat and plasma impacts.  The same technology. The researchers created for OSIRIS-APEX can used in the materials and structures. That protects satellites against nuclear explosions. That means this kind of system delivers information on how to prot
