Smile for the robot

2012-07-31 16:54:30.729241+02 by Dan Lyke 3 comments

The Suidobashi Heavy Industries 001 is a giant "mecha" type robot that a human can ride inside. Alas, they don't have walking down yet, but this caught my eye because...

I recently discovered that my cell phone camera has a mode where it can trigger the shutter when the subject smiles. It's kinda cool. The weapons control for this device works similarly, the (BB) guns and fire when the pilot smiles.

I'll be worried when your cell phone has a mode where the shutter triggers the subject to smile ;)
