 Portrayal of robovision from the movie Cyborg
|
Robo-vision refers to the visual perception of robots. Robots can be equipped to directly receive video, but interpretation is difficult. In fiction it is usually seen that robots are equipped with non-visual spectrum capabilities to allow them to more easily distinguish between living creatures and inanimate objects, as well as for better dramatic effect for the viewer. They are usually equipped with HUDs that provide them with targeting and information. Certain organic creatures, such as the Predator from the eponymous series of films, possess similar abilities.
Robo-vision in fiction
Westworld's robots saw in the infrared spectrum. This was accomplished using an at the time revolutionary computer effect. The 1973 film is widely acknowledged as the first to use such an effect.
Terminators have been portrayed with similar HUDs to assist in the recognition, acquisition and destruction of their targets. The T-800, the most primitive unit to be shown at any length to the viewer, can see only in infrared. Later units can also see in green, presumably as a form of night vision. Cameron can perceive those spectrums in addition to the normal spectrum visible to humans.
The Aprilbot in Buffy the Vampire Slayer was depicted as having a HUD listing her various files and programs with visual data in the center.
