Cyberpunk Tech 12 – Robot guns

without comments

Here is a sales video of a fully automated sentry gun – auto-detecting humans, shooting them or accepting surrender. Video, infrared, 5.5 mm. Developed by Samsung, together with the University of South Korea. Why Korea? Because they use them to guard the border. Some more info.

Cyberpunk Tech 11: Bodymonitor/Killdisplay

without comments

A subdermal display, that runs on blood? With a touchscreen? Its here. And yes, it has bluetooth build in allready. Kind of scary how fast reality is catching up with my cyberpunk books. Guys, please start working on muscle & bone lace. That would be the perfect cure for back ache…

Cover of Cory Doctorow\'s Little Brother NovelCory Doctorow has put his new book, “Little Brother” online. He’s so good I had to add him to my list of Cyberpunk writers (see sidebar).

It’s a

young adult novel about hacker kids who use technology to reclaim the Bill of Rights from the DHS after a terrorist attack on San Francisco.

Cyberpunk Tech 10: Cyberware – Wo stehen wir?

without comments

Einige spannende Links zum Thema Cyberware aus der letzten Zeit:

  • Wie man Organe schafft, die ohne Auslösen der Immunabwehr vom Körper akzeptiert werden, beschreibt Heise hier.
  • Kontaktlinsen mit eingebautem Display (wir haben berichtet) wurde erfolgreich an Kaninchen getestet.
  • Warum sollte man Cyberware nicht hacken können? Es geht doch schon heute. Ein Cyberarm ohne Bluetooth? Wie lädt man denn dann das Firmwareupdate runter?
  • Neurosky: Computerspiele direkt durch das Gehirn steuern. Bald auch für den produktiven Einsatz im Büro?
