Slashdot linked up this "news and video" article detailing the creation of new robotic sentries to be used to protect the Korean DMZ. Combining a sophisticated all-weather sensor suite with a 5.5mm machine gun, these real-life "Robocops" promise to automate what is otherwise a very labor-intensive (not to mention dangerous) job.
I especially liked the commercial "Samsung!" logo on the tripod. Gotta know the sponsors!
