Dr. Joseph Guy, Dr. Darius Sepulveda and Professor Lachlan Poots unveil the B.C. - 208 Model Combat Android
Just when all was looking hopeless for L.A.S.E.R. Corp. International’s tech division, a breakthrough has been found. Using an advanced emotional recognition chip called Emote, the B.C. Series of androids are now capable of understanding behaviour in other living organisms. The company has issued this press release to celebrate the launch of this new combat model of robot.
Dr. Sepulveda stated today
“We have made major strides in our ability to crunch more into less space. The 208 model is indeed the most ambitious of our B.C. series. This model isn’t without its flaws, of course; the emotion chip uses billions of gigaquads of processing power and consequently we’ve had to remove some features that previous models possessed. Most notable of these is the memory function – the 208 series is prone to complete memory failure in semi-rare cases. In one instance, our prototype lost its entire memory banks. When we reactivated the machine, the robot had no memory data at all, causing it to behave like an infant. It copied my behaviour and movement down to the letter and wouldn’t leave my side for the rest of the afternoon. Suffice to say, we intend to work out these bugs in the near future.”
Some exciting developments are sure to come to light from the company within the coming months. Their government grant has already tripled over the last two weeks and the world anticipates the eventual commercial launch of the B.C. – 208 model.
