Despite some of
the more questionable uses of robotic sensory technology, these
developments are advancing robotics in a variety of directions. A
flexible, stretchable, and resilient synthetic skin embedded with
tiny sensors can now convey the sense of touch to robots. Though it
is unclear whether this skin could be implanted in humans, many
robotic applications are being considered—electronic skin could be
used to detect biohazards, radiation, or weapons. It might even be
able to register pain, which would be extremely useful when running
vehicle crash tests for the development of human safety systems.
Artificial skin to simulate human tissue has also been designed to
allow for a robot to actually sweat. Why? It certainly seems a
useless oddity to us now, but I recall hearing something about
infiltration robots with living human tissue that even sweat like us.
I think Arnold Schwarzenegger might know something about that...
As seven alien races struggle to co-exist in an uneasy alliance, the Inter-Stellar Union sends Union Guard agents on missions to preserve the crucial balance. These specialized operatives must do what regional security cannot, dealing with smugglers, pirates, terrorists, and even greater challenges in order to bring stability to a universe that needs it desperately. Without the Union Guard, the races will not be prepared to face a looming alien threat they can only hope to defeat together.
