    “Soylent Green is made of People!”
    I know they say this is a rescue robot but it looks more like a mashup of Soylent Green and the Matrix.

    Very cool image. Love anything to do with robotics. And I think rescue robots are a fantastic application.
    Have fun on your trip Regine!

    It does look rather scary. I hope they’ve fitted a speaker playing a calming voice to reassure people.
