Secom's RFID-kid tracking now enforced by the Secom Robot X

Remember Secom's
Robot X robot security sentry? The one that goes all
crazy on people and rams at them really fast and shoots smoke and fires blinding lights? Well, looks like they've
integrated RFID into the bot, so the Robot X can be used to guard Japan's precious Secom
RFID-tagged youth. Say goodbye to your days of
heady power as hall monitors, kids—like many jobs in the real world, a robots going to do what you do, but
better.

Will it take your lunch money too?
Yet again, we see another product shot in action, yet not so much. If they're going to use photoshop, pay someone to do it right.

Why aren't you in class? You have 10 seconds in which to comply.

Watch the videos. On the device youll see speakers, flashing lights, and smoke. Either this will be a very ineffective crime stopping tool that crooks would laugh at and kick over or a real cool mobile motorized disco machine complete with music, lights, and smoke. They really need to market this box to nightclubs. Im sure it will be a hit.

hahaha! That hilarious! You've got to watch the video.
Hey aren't they litigous over there too? Guess not. The first time a robot rams somebody in the U.S. the "ram-ee" will own the robot company.
Plus, like the previous poster said, it doesn't seem like a good deterent.
And the first time somebody makes a portable EMP device, all this technology is toast anyway.

Japan is so cool. Who cares about what they did in WWII, everything is neat and robotic and technological there no so I want to go.

japan isnt cool, i can see you've never been there....
Japan is full of depressed, overly shy and intoxicated beings ; i love the Japs but frankly their system is a bitch for the individual.
Its all about being the greatest nation, exactly like in China, the individual doesnt matter overthere.
They have less than 2 weeks of holiday per year, work for 50 to 55 hours per week and housing is so expensive they've recently allowed people to rent 5m cupboards.
Hem, scuse me but those multicolor gsm/consoles/tv/dvds/keychains and stuff dont make up for that kind of social pressure and oppression.
Technology's a means, not an end itself!
