'''Robo-vision''' refers to the visual perception of robots. Robots can be equipped to directly receive video, but interpretation is difficult. In fiction, the view from a robot or cyborg's eyes is often portrayed as markedly different from human beings some way, from seeing things in different colors or visual spectrum to a full Heads Up Display that details system function read-outs and targeting displays. They are usually equipped with HUDs that provide them with targeting and information. As a consequence, this is commonly used as a point-of-view shot for fictional combat robots as they attack or seek out targets. The effect can also be achieved with other devices. For instance, in the ''Predator'' series of films, the eponymous alien hunters use masks equipped with HUD's which allow them to see in multiple vision spectrum, including infrared.

An example of robo-vision. Additional information, such as battery charge, and visual artefacts such as scan lines are laid over first-person vision. By ChocolateKeys.

Robo-vision refers to the first-person portrayal of a fembot's perception of her environment, and especially its visual perception.

Presentation

In fiction, the view from a robot or cyborg's eyes is often portrayed as markedly different from that of human beings. This may include a different range of perception on the electromagnetic spectrum, lower of higher quality of perception, or additional information being superimposed to their point of view.

Visually, the point of view of a robot may be shown by altering colors, applying distortion, or superimposing additional information.

In fiction

  • Westworld's robots see in the infrared spectrum, accomplished using an at the time revolutionary computer 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 Marionettes of the Saber Marionette series are shown to use integrated HUDs. In one scene, Lime utilizes an analyzer system which highlights a target's structural weak points, which she uses to disable Panther's arm.
