The robots that now appear in our homes would be smarter and smarter. At first as dogs but finally as intelligent as children. They would be able to develope complex tasks but they will be aswell able to feel emotions. In this situation, how would they react when forgotten as our nowadays toys. We play a lot with a new toy till a new toy comes. Then we forget it. So again, how would an intelligent toy react to this oblivion? Will they get depressed? Will they commit suicide? Will they cry or will they ask for our atention? Probably we will have to buy another robot in order to confort the first one. NOTE: I'm sure many people is going to ask me Why are those robots in a kitchen? And I have an answer to that question. I want them to be in a in a place next to stupid machines and objets, like a radio or a bread toaster. Because that's the central drama of this history. They are intelligent but they are consider as objets. DESCRIPTION OF HOW THIS IMAGE WAS CREATED: In this image all is modelled with cgs and beziers. Textures are very simple the same as light. It has a soft radiosity and no more. Ambient light is modulated with some other lights. As I always say, please if you want a more detailed description or more information about my image, write to me. I would be pleased to explain it. Version Espa_ola ---------------- DESCRIPCION DE LA IMAGEN Imagina un futuro donde las m_quinas sean inteligentes. Los robots que ahora aparecen timidamente en nuestros hogares se volver_n mas y mas inteligentes. Al principio listos como perros, pero mas tarde, tan inteligentes como un ni_o. Ser_n capaces de desarrollar tareas complejas pero ser_n al mismo tiempo capaces de sentir emociones. En esta situaci_n _como reaccionar_n cuando sean olvidados, como son hoy olvidados nuestros juguetes? Jugamos mucho con un juego nuevo hasta que un nuevo juguete aparece. Entonces olvidamos al antiguo juguete. Entonces _como reaccionar_ ante este olvido un juguete inteligente? _Se deprimir_? _Se suicidar_? _Llorar_ o tratar_ de llamar nuestra atenci_n? Probablemente tendremos que comprar otro robot para que consuele al primero. NOTA: Estoy seguro de que mucha gente se preguntar_ _porqu_ est_n los robots en una cocina? Y tengo una respuesta para esto. Quer_a que estuvieran en un lugar cerca de objetos "est_pidos" como una tostadora o una radio. Porque ese es el drama central de esta historia. Son inteligentes pero son tomados por objetos. _COMO FUE CREADA ESTA IMAGEN? En esta imagen todo est_ modelado con CGS y Beziers. Las texturas son muy simples igual que la luz. Tiene un poco de radiosidad y nada mas. La luz ambiente est_ modulada con un par de luces muy tenues. Y como siempre digo, si quieres una descripcion mas detallada o mas informacion sobre mi imagen, escribeme. Ser_ un placer explicarla.
