RISE OF THE MACHINES: DARPA welcomes New Huminoid Robot into War Arsenal

(Before It's News)

PAMONA | The DARPA Robotics Challenge finals in Pomona California has just concluded. A new robotics team has been crowned and awarded $2,000,000. Twenty-five teams from around the world entered their autonomous robots to compete in real world challenges based on man-made and natural disasters. 

South korean  - Team Kite – won the $2,000,000 award.

DARPA stands for Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency and they have been hosting challenges similar to this for years. 

While this challenge didn’t include wielding automatic weapons or grenade launchers it does have some concerned that these robots are the first step towards autonomous terminators as seen in the popular Hollywood film franchise. 

The world is moving faster towards autonomous Drone technology the sky is the literal limit to what this technology will be programmed to do. 

Recently the X-47B Drone completed the first ever autonomous mid air refueling. Perhaps it’s next test mission will be a fully autonomous bombing run? 

Meanwhile the 15 nation Alliance Ground Surveillance Program just received 5 new Global Hawks. They just rolled off the assembly line in time to be delivered to NATO as tensions mount over the Crimean Conflict. The Air Force Global Hawk evolved from DARPA technology.

Back in California the winners are celebrating their victory. But as for DARPA I think their victory plans are even bigger.

Do you welcome these advances in technology? We’d love to hear what you think in the comments below.
