Surveillance Robots

What would you do if you killed a fly in your apart­ment, and when you exam­ined the dead fly, you real­ized it was actu­ally a (now bro­ken) very small, fly­ing robotic camera?”

That’s a thought that’s been run­ning around my head this last week as the win­dows have been open (with the screens off) and a few flies have been unlucky enough to come within range of my rub­ber band — I am deadly with a rub­ber band…

I posted that thought on Face­book today…

And my fol­low up thought -

would you:

a. ques­tion your san­ity…
b. be glad all that para­noid think­ing was true after all…
c. quickly try and leave the coun­try.
d. be amazed at your tax dol­lars at work.
e. other option…

My friend Dominic said he’d  “try to reverse engi­neer it so that it could do my bidding.”

Unfor­tu­nately, my dog Mose­ley ate the remains of the fly I killed today, and that option is out of the question.

The image above is one of the Sur­veil­lance Robots I put together last year around the same time I was work­ing on Redbot.
