ROBOT STOMACHS

Yes, that's right, you heard me correctly. Kind of hard to enslave mankind if you are leashed by your own power chord. Batteries allow freer movement but less movement because they run out of steam. What the modern robot-on-the go needs is an ability to digest food.

Of course, the scientists are way out in front of me on this. Behold the microbial fuel cell. Well, yeah its a little clunky right NOW. But just you wait, in five years time roomba will not only vacuum your floor but eat the sweepings. You might even catch it sneeaking around at night knocking over salt shakers to add a little flavor.

ROBOT VULTURE

At the nexus of biology, engineering, chemistry and anthropology, we find the robot. Whatever revolution YOU think is going to change the world is just going to aid and abet the robots changing the world.
