Will make waging war too much like a videogame. The removal of the human element if the drones ever become completely self sufficient is disturbing. |

I have seen enough movies to know that Robotic Warfare is a bad idea. I work on some of the systems behind Robotic Warfare its quite interesting technology. |

I've also some experience with robotics and it can be great fun technically. Building and programming and gaming sumo-robots is great fun, as are robo-bugs (they are really quite sweet in their own way) , robotic industrial systems for hazardous and dangerous areas are good value. |

I work on higher systems, not individual robotics, the systems for communications and remote control. |
