TECH SPECS
HOLY MOLEY
If you don’t have time to cook but long for a home cooked
meal, then start saving your pennies for Moley. For $92,000,
you can have your own full-time robotic kitchen chef that
cooks and cleans up after. Projected for release in 2018,
Moley will cook you one of its programmed recipes with the
touch of a button. Celebrity chefs like Gordan Ramsay and
Emeril Lagasse are not fans, stating to make a great meal you
must use human senses, such as smell and taste, that a robot
cannot replicate. However, Moley’s CEO claims the more the
robot cooks, the more feedback is received from the diner.
The robot will quickly “learn” what tastes best.

ROBOCOP
Dubai police are planning to hire a new cop to its force – a
robot cop, sometime in 2017. Currently, there is only set to
one release, but the goal is to intergrade a full force by 2020.
This robot cop will be far from the Robocop’s, Alex Murphy, but
that doesn’t mean it will be in the future. For now, the Dubai
robot cop can salute, shake hands, scan faces, and allow people
to report crime and pay fines for traffic violations through its
touchscreen. They are working to have it follow voice commands
and spot people from meters away, approach them, and greet
them by the GITEX Expo 2020.
SEXY TIME
It is stated that by 2050, human and robot
relationships will outweigh human to human.
Creater of Real Doll, Abyss Creations, is jumpstarting
that trend in 2017. By next year, people will be able
to buy a humanlike lover for $15,000. The sex robot
will feature heating elements to simulate body
warmth, warmed genitalia areas, and electronic
sensors so the robots can react with artificial
pleasure as their owner/lover caresses their
synthetic skin. For those who enjoy a little dirty
talk, the robots will also talk to their lovers in an
attractive, sexy voice.
