No Horst, I just made a stupid out of hand comment. You may have seen the movie Cheap, Fast, and out of Control. I was looking forward to seeing some robots. It was more about Naked Mole Rats and was a disappointment. I was wondering if this movie will be more of the same.
Having worked in Semiconductors for years, I have seen some exotic robotics. With 12 hours to kill you get to examine them fairly closely. Hynix has an amazing robotic wafer transport system, with a elevated monorail to rival Seattle. My technical discussion in my sci-fi story will have a lot robots. Electrically stimulated polymers as muscles; that sort of thing. See Marshall Brain's Robotic Nation for a preview http://marshallbrain.com/robotic-nation.htm Horst, that's a good German name. I have a good friend in Nurnberg named Horst. He and his wife Evi showed me around Bavaria; what I didn't see on my own via my involvement with a Trigonometric Point Recovery Survey.
