侦测机器人

    这款可悬停在空中的微型无人机看起来简直像是电影里才会出现的装置。它可以飞经建筑物的窗口，利用高精度摄像头进行侦测。这款机器人名为EASE，由CyPhy Works公司出品。它整体只有1英尺宽、16英寸高，使用热感摄像头和两部高精度摄像头进行监测活动。EASE利用近似于鱼线的极细铜线，向远处的控制站安全传输数据并获取电力。该公司总部位于美国马萨诸塞州丹弗斯，公司运营主管杰森•沃克表示，EASE会在飞行期间放出更长的铜线，以免行动受到束缚。这项技术在根本上意味着，这款机器人所传输的数据将很难遭到非法截取，而且可以在空中悬停无数个小时。

Spybot

    This tiny hovering drone looks like it's straight out of the movies, flying through windows of buildings and spying with high-definition cameras. The bot, called EASE, is made by CyPhy Works. Just one foot wide and 16 inches tall, it uses thermal cameras and two high-definition cameras for surveillance. The EASE uses tiny copper coil akin to fishing wire to relay secure communications to the command station and to receive battery power from afar. It spools out more coil as it flies to avoid becoming tangled, says Jason Walker, director of operations at the company, based in Danvers, Mass. The technology ultimately means the robot communications are tough to hack, and the machine can stay aloft for endless hours.
