Do we really need flesh eatting robots in our future? : Eco Answers

I am non stop on the
lookout for informative stuff on
Alternative Energy Sources. This morning, I
come across a very
informative information that talks over Eco Energy Sources from a different
light. Today’s new article is titled Do we really need flesh eatting robots in our future? .
Question by Gojira: Do we really need flesh eatting robots in our future?
It could be a combination of 19th-century mechanics, 21st-century technology — and a 20th-century horror movie.

A Maryland company under contract to the Pentagon is working on a steam-powered robot that would fuel itself by gobbling up whatever organic material it can find — grass, wood, old furniture, even dead bodies.

Robotic Technology Inc.’s Energetically Autonomous Tactical Robot — that’s right, “EATR” — “can find, ingest, and extract energy from biomass in the environment (and other organically-based energy sources), as well as use conventional and alternative fuels (such as gasoline, heavy fuel, kerosene, diesel, propane, coal, cooking oil, and solar) when suitable,” reads the company’s Web site.

That “biomass” and “other organically-based energy sources” wouldn’t necessarily be limited to plant material — animal and human corpses contain plenty of energy, and they’d be plentiful in a war zone.

Oh god, I can see this backfiring badly. Don’t blame me when the robots take over and start eating us all.
