Advanced military weapons have always scared human beings, and rightfully so because humans inherently wish to stay alive. They fear the enemy might come into their city, or civilization and wreak havoc. In fact this is a real fear because throughout human history there have been battles, wars, and marauding armies raping and pillaging. Okay so, I'd like to talk about a new paradigm of warfare with regards to advanced weapon systems, namely I'd like to discuss the inherent fear of autonomous robotic military equipment.
Why is it that humans fear robotic weapons systems so much? Is it because of the unknown, or a misunderstanding about what these systems are about, or how they work? Perhaps from an American perspective it is good this fear exists in the minds of the enemy as we use our UAVs or unmanned aerial vehicles overhead. Still, we do have some fear amongst our own citizens, and perhaps this has to do with famous science fiction movies such as the Terminator series, but is this justified? And how can you win a battle against military robots?
Understand the Sensors Used by Robotics
First, I would submit to you that you need to understand how they work, and how they collect their information to do what they do. They use sensors, and the sensors do not work like human eyes, nose, ears, feel, or hearing. Now then they may have 4 or 5 Sensors which to take in information in this regard, but they do not work the same as human senses. Thus, you may very well be able to fool the Sensors. Once you fool the sensors the military robotics are not as accurate, and therefore cannot do the job intended.
Hide in Broad Day Light
This also allows someone to hide in broad daylight. For instance consider that the sensors might be based on a heat signature, but if the ambient temperature is close to the same temperature as a human being, then all the suddenly the human being blends into the background. Yes, if the sensors are really good they will still be able to pick up a human, but there are other ways besides infrared which are used by these robots, and if you can disable the sensors, they cannot sense you.
Hack the Enemy - Use the Machines Against Them
There are indeed ways of interfering with the Sensors, and the robotic systems, or even using cyber warfare techniques and hacking to turn those very robots against their makers. In other words hijack the enemy's robots to serve your will and achieve victory in battle. It can be done. Indeed I hope you will please consider all this and think on it.
