Questions:
1) Is this real or just Sci-fi?
Assuming these CAN be produced, what technical difficulties will need to be overcome (i.e miniturization, motors, power supply, control systems?) How long until these are flying?
2) Who will benefit from this technology?
3) How could you protect yourself from having one of these were watching you? 4) Discuss Privacy issues and ethics of developement? Can it be kept in military or law enforcement hands? If not, should it be developed at all knowing how it could be misused?
5) What legislative controls, if any should be employed? If you can afford one, should you be able to purchase?
1.)I would just say its sci-fi, they would have to overcome alot of difaculties in makeing the creation tiny, but also equiping it with the technology and resorces to spy, kill, tag, or sense the radio active chemicals they want it to sense. Id say there never flying! 2.) the army, bomb squad possible, the fbi, dectives, police, hitmen, the cia, and scientists and people who specialize in radioactive chemicals. 3.) u cant really know if ones watching you so theres really no way to protect yourselve, besides stay outta trouble so theres no need for you to be watched. 4.) well really those things break ur ammendment rights to privacy, and i dont think they should be created cuz if they fall into the wrong hands they could be used to spy on are military and government. 5.) No you should not be able to purchase, they allow you to disregard someones ammendment rights and they can be used for expicit, viloent, and unethical reasons. those things shouldnt be able to just free fly. they should not be created at all! -Casandra Linden
ReplyDelete1) I believe that this is a real possiblity for our future. We just need to find new technolgical systems that are high powered in a small compact system. 2) The government will be able to stop most terrism and major crime going on around us. So it will help the country as a whole but it will also help the government control us more. 3)It would be hard for it to watch you in dead zones so if you stay near those you'll be safer. 4) I don't believe that this should be invented because depending on who gets ahold of it, we as private citizens could be in danger of our privacy. 5)The government should be the only one's able to use this teqnology; and only in high risk circumstances, like with terrist threats or at the risk of public safty.

ReplyDelete1)For the time being, the idea is just Sci-Fi, though with the advances in technology it's a possibility. 2)Society could benefit from this, as it could make a decrease in the crime rate. 3)There really is no way of knowing if you are being watched and monitored. 4)It easily has the potential to be misused, it can be considered an invasion of privacy, unethical treatment, and a violation of Constitutional Rights. 5) Some restrictions have to be applied to the production and distribution of the devices, first of all, they should only be regarded to military or official use. No civilians should be able to access one.

ReplyDeleteIs this real or just Sci-fi?
It’s probably real…
Assuming these CAN be produced, what technical difficulties will need to be overcome (i.e. miniaturization, motors, power supply, control systems? How long until these are flying?
How do we even know if they aren’t flying around right now? We don’t know, so therefore, this question is unanswerable. I doubt they would tell us if they had these things out flying around. If they aren’t already, then I’m sure it will not be long until they are.
Who will benefit from this technology?
The government, police forces, and the armed services will benefit from this technology. They would be the only ones using this technology. It might help we the people if they find like murders and stuff, but it’s mainly going to benefit them.
How could you protect yourself from having one of these were watching you?
Just don’t give them a reason to watch you. If they are out, they are looking for something; don’t be it.
Discuss Privacy issues and ethics of development? Can it be kept in military or law enforcement hands? If not, should it be developed at all knowing how it could be misused?
As I said before, we wouldn’t know if they were even producing these. You seen how realistic they look in the video, now put two and two together. They should not make them, but that doesn’t mean they won’t make them.
What legislative controls, if any should be employed? If you can afford one, should you be able to purchase?
They shouldn’t be employed, so no; you shouldn’t be able to buy them. They should be ruled unconstitutional, no one needs to be watching me without me knowing because that is creepy
1) its an extreme measure to take but with the technology we have today it could go eathier way
ReplyDelete2)everyone will benifit from this, it will decrase crime rate and make the community a better place.
3) if you stay out of trouble theres no need to be watched. but if you think you are try to hide you face with maybe a hoodie and they wont know the diffrence.
4)it breaks your rights with privacy, it can easily be missused and should be kept somewhere safe.
5)you should not be able to purchase this on your own, it can easily be misused by some creeper.
I think that MAVs could be created.
ReplyDeleteSome technical difficulties could happen to make it more difficult. Motors would have to be strong but quiet to make sure that they were not heard. They would also have to find a way to install a lot of technology into such a little object. I would say about ten years before they are flying.
The military, FBI, and police departments could benefit form this. Police and FBI could use them to track down criminals, and the military could use them to possibly stop terrorists.
The way to avoid being watched by one of these is to not do anything wrong.
This technology would be best if it stayed in the hands of law enforcement and the military so it would not be abused or used in the wrong way, like invading privacy. These could be kept in the hands of the military and law enforcement, like tazers.
Regular citizens should not be able to buy them because they would be best for law enforcement and military.
It’s Sci-fi, you would need to make it fly, with a micro sensitive fabric which cannot be scaled to that size they would have to find a power supply that’s small light and long lasting and that could be recharge by natural resources. They would have to find a way to stabilize the control system so that it would control its self and they would have to import an AI. No one would benefit from it because IT’S NOT REAL. You wouldn’t have to protect yourself because it not real. The only people who would have it, is the military and they would misuse it. No one would purchase it because it couldn’t be produced.

1.) I think this is all sci-Fi, they could be made in today's time or sometime in the future. 2.)Everyone could benift from them and the crime rate would go down in some places.
ReplyDelete3.)You would never really know if they were watching you, I think they could be an invasion of privacy.
4.)I think it could be helpful to the military, but not to regular day people. No one would have the privacy that they deserve.
5.)You shouldn't be able to buy one because anyopne could be spied on by one another and that violates their privacy.
Questions:
ReplyDelete1) Is this real or just Sci-fi?
Assuming these CAN be produced, what technical difficulties will need to be overcome (i.e miniturization, motors, power supply, control systems?) How long until these are flying?
I believe that the MAV’s are real, but it would be very difficult to produce. You would have to put some very small technology into it. And you’d have to make sure everything was perfect so it wouldn’t accidentally injure somebody, unless you were making a bomb.
2) Who will benefit from this technology?
The Army, Police, FBI, or the CSI could benefit from this technology.
3) How could you protect yourself from having one of these were watching you?
I don’t think that there is a way to protect yourself from having them watch you. Their either small, or disguised as something else, you wouldn’t notice it or think anything of it.
4) Discuss Privacy issues and ethics of development? Can it be kept in military or law enforcement hands? If not, should it be developed at all knowing how it could be misused?
It could possibly stay in Military or the law enforcement hands, but people could steal it. They could destroy people’s lives, or hurt them.
5) What legislative controls, if any should be employed? If you can afford one, should you be able to purchase?
Only the Government, Army, Air force, etc. Or FBI Agencies, CSI, the police. Not in the hands of just any person.

1.) I think this can be possible for our future we just need to find more powerful technical systems. And a small pact system. 2.) The government will be able to stop some of the crime and tourism also more importantly they will be able to control us. 3.) You really can’t know who’s watching you so the best way is just to stay out of trouble so there will be no need for people to watch you. 4.) Things like that can break your amendment privacy and if it gets in the wrong hands of someone they can spy on the military. 5.) Some restrictions have to be made to the production and distribution of the devices; they should only be given to military or official use.

1. Is this real or just Sci-fi?
ReplyDeleteI think that it is Sci-fi; it could be a possibility for our future. With the technology that we have they would never fly but in 2020 and if the technology keeps getting better it’s a possibility.
Assuming these CAN be produced, what technical difficulties will need to be overcome (i.e. miniaturization, motors, power supply, control systems?) How long until these are flying?
2. Who will benefit from this technology?
This would benefit the government and the whole country by protecting us from terrorist and helping us in Iraq and further wars.
3. How could you protect yourself from having one of these were watching you?
You could not really tell if ones watching you but if it is just do not do anything bad.
4. Discuss Privacy issues and ethics of development? Can it be kept in military or law enforcement hands? If not, should it be developed at all knowing how it could be misused?
I do not think it should be invented because what if a terrorist gets one and spies on all the government.
5. What legislative controls, if any should be employed? If you can afford one, should you be able to purchase?
No, I think you have to be part of the government to purchase one.
1. I would have to say its sci-fi. the technical difficulties would be pretty much everything because of the technology that we dont have.
ReplyDelete2. The u.s forces (navy, marines, airforce, army).
3. id say hide? dont be spotted.
4. well in the u.s it would be a privacy problem but anywhere else no because its a mission to spy, but here in the u.s its an act agaisnt the amendments and the law.
5. legislature control is a law that states that a u.s. citizen has his or her right to be non control by the goverment. no because it would be a law that u.s. citiznes shall not buy this product due to laws and codes under stated by the goverment. - josh benner-
1) is this real or sci-fi?
ReplyDeletei think it is real, we just need to find new technology systems.
2)who will benifit from this technology?
the govorment, policeforces, and armed forces.
3) how could you protect yourself from having one of these were watching you?
don't give them a reason to watch you
4) discuss privacy issues and ethics of development? can it be kept in military or law enforcement hands? if not, should it be developed at all knowing how it could be misused?
we woulden't know if they were proceding these.
5) what legislative controls if any should be employed? if you can afford one, should you be able to purchase? no, you shouldn't be able to buy them, no one needs to be watching me, expecially without me knowing.
Is this real or just Sci-fi?
ReplyDeleteAssuming these CAN be produced, what technical difficulties will need to be overcome (i.e miniturization, motors, power supply, control systems?) How long until these are flying? This is real and I would say it will take at least 3 years for that technology.
2) Who will benefit from this technology? Our armed forces that protect this country.
3) How could you protect yourself from having one of these were watching you? You can lock the door and close the blinds but they are basically always watching you.
4. Discuss Privacy issues and ethics of developement? Can it be kept in military or law enforcement hands? If not, should it be developed at all knowing how it could be misused? They could be dysfunctional and waste a lot of money.
5) What legislative controls, if any should be employed? If you can afford one, should you be able to purchase? No they should only be used upon authorization of the military forces
1) In think that this is just Sci-fi, but assuming these CAN be produced, the technical difficulties that will need to be overcome are making them small and powerful. Also how long they will be able to fly with their small power supply. I think it will be a long time before they can fly.2) who will benefit from this technology include the FBI, Bomb Squads, police, and the government. 3) You don’t really know if someone is watching you, so there’s no way to protect yourself.4) I don’t think that it should it be developed because of your privacy and what if someone can get a hold of it and uses it for all the wrong reasons.5) I think that they should not be able to be purchased and only the FBI or Government should be allowed to use this technology.
ReplyDeleteIs this real or just Sci-fi?
ReplyDelete1) Assuming these CAN be produced, what technical difficulties will need to be overcome (i.e miniturization, motors, power supply, control systems?) How long until these are flying? Yes this is real. It will take at least 3 years for the technology.
2) Who will benefit from this technology? Our armed forces during war.
3) How could you protect yourself from having one of these were watching you? You can go into hiding.
4) Discuss Privacy issues and ethics of development? It will be really hard to control them when they are half way around the world. Can it be kept in military or law enforcement hands? Yes. If not, should it be developed at all knowing how it could be misused? Yes.
5) What legislative controls, if any should be employed? No they should only be used under the authorization of the government. If you can afford one, should you be able to purchase? No.
1)Is it real or just Sci fi i would say it is real all that tecnology I would be surprised if is wasnt real what we have been able to do in this last century is unbelievible and I know we can make somthing like that.2)witnesses they wont be so scared to tell that if they were proven innocent they would be scared that the criminal would come after them so then there will be real footage.3) not do anything stupid for them to attack me. 4) If we the people could get one it would be havic and wouldnt be a good idea at all. 5) no becuase like i said before it would be a waste of time and the world would go on a rampage with them and i dont like the fact that at anytime they could be watching you.
ReplyDelete1. I think that this is all Sci-Fi, but with the way our technology is advacing we could be possibly seeing these in our future.
ReplyDelete2. I think that everyone could benefit from these. Also the crime rate could poosibly go down with these.
3. You proubably would never know if they were watching you they could possible be an invation of privacy.
4. I think that it would be good for the military and private store owners, but i don't think it would be a good idea for regular everyday people because it would start becoming an issue.
5. I honestly think that only the military should have them because they know how to use these materials. No i dont think if you have the money you should not buy one because who knows what you could do with them. they could get you in big trouble.
1. I think it is possible with the technology that we use today they can make mini bug bots to be used for secret surveillance in the world where they choose to. Also if these can be made I’m sure in about 1-2 years these will be up and running, they will probably be running on some type of battery system would be used to power the device.
ReplyDelete2. If anybody could benefit from this machine I would probably say the army or any other military program that chooses to make this project.
3. If I had one of these devices watching me I would probably sick to crowded areas or just carry a fly swatter?
4. I believe that only the military should use this for military purposes because the way things are going with corrupt law enforcement or any other being deciding to spy on another person would be outlandish.
5. No I think bothering with the temptations on using the device should conflict with the laws of breaking and entering and surveillance another person without a warrant.
J.S.
It is sci-fi because the tactical use for the robots has to miniscule in order to pass off as a bug or bird. The technology for that just doesn’t exist yet. The battery would have to last insane amounts of time and be so small that it could fit inside the body. If these could ever possible be manufactured they would be so expensive no one but the military would have them. These wouldn’t be watching you because it’s not real but if they were to be real, just don’t do anything super illegal and they won’t follow you. These would not stay in our hands because the military would sell them, we already sell the terrorists weapons, why not super secret reconnaissance robots too? These would be illegal because they could invade on other people’s privacy. You wouldn’t be able to buy one unless you had enough money to buy three more houses without taking a loan out on them.
ReplyDelete1.I dont think it is scifi because it could happen someday with the technology and it should be soon.
ReplyDelete2. I think the person that makes it will benefit alot and the person that buys it will make even more because they would be able to spy on other countries but if found out that could be a big problem. Aliences will be broken and the world will be at war.
3. I dont think there will be any way to protect yourself from these things they are able to hide and fly.
4.For this number look back at answer two.
5.I dont think you should be able to purchase these because people can and will misuse them.
Many of you discussed some interesting points. They do have the technology and have been using it in the Iraq war but the objects are radio controlled airplanes. It is very feasible in my opinion that this will be a reality in the near future. I too worry about privacy so I wouldn’t want this technology in the wrong hands.
