| Although robotics technology is commonly associated with AI ([[Artificial Intelligence]]), the creation of mobile and dextrous machines predates effective AI by decades. The military, directly or indirectly, has often been a driving force behind robotics development. | {{:amee.jpg?200x200 }}Although robotics technology is commonly associated with AI ([[Artificial Intelligence]]), the creation of mobile and dextrous machines predates effective AI by decades.

| Robots take many forms, but some of the most versatile and widely used are humanoid. These robots can ride in vehicles made for recoms, use tools designed for recoms, and function in the same work environments. This means that any kind of new business or project can be started without have to source specialized robots for it. In established industries, however, specialized non-humanoid robots often prove more efficient. | {{ :service_robot.jpeg?200x400}}Robots take many forms, but some of the most versatile and widely used are humanoid.

| Because the currently available AI cores are so large and require so much support infrastructure, it's impossible to make a humanoid robot with its own self-contained intelligence. (However, this was possible and was done before the [[Apocalypse War]] using [[nanotechnology]]-based AI cores!) Most humanoid robots contain processors with basic sensor and motor functions, allowing them to stand, walk, grasp objects, etc. More sophisticated direction has to come from a remote source, which can be either an AI or a recom working through telepresence. | Because the currently available AI cores are so large and require so much support infrastructure, it's impossible to make a humanoid robot with its own self-contained intelligence.
