Researchers at the University of Waterloo in Ontario , ostensibly oblivious to the fact that engineering is exponentially outpacing our power to keep up with it , have produce a new breed of levitating micro - machines .
Worse still , these malignant Micro Machines are arm with tiny pincer that open and close when they are hot up by , hold back for it , a optical maser .
The research worker arrogate this discovery will direct to well toxic waste cleanup :
“ Since there is no wiring , and the golem freely be adrift in atmosphere , it can operate in an enclosed chamber while the whole apparatus is outdoor , ” write U of W professor Mir Behrad Khamesee . “ It can mould in hazardous environments , toxic chamber , and it can be used to conduct bio - hazardous experimentation . Also , since there is no mechanical linkage , it has a junk - free operation , suitable for clean room applications . ”
Right , until these small critters spawn some unreal intelligence operation , take a facial expression at the planet , and decide “ toxic waste ” means “ mankind . ” [ ZDNet ]
