The Armored Combat Engineer Robot (ACER) is a military robot created by Mesa Robotics.
 Roughly the size of a small bulldozer and weighing 2.25 tons, ACER is among the larger of the terrestrial military robots.
 Nonetheless, like many other military robots, it has a modular body, allowing for adjustments for its next mission.
 ACER is able to reach speeds of 6.3 mph, using treads for movement.
 Uses for this robot include clearing obstacles, removing explosives, hauling cargo and disabled vehicles, and serving as a platform for various other tasks, such as clearing buildings and disarming landmines and lasermines.
The Battlefield Extraction-Assist Robot (BEAR) is a military robot under the development of Vecna Technologies that will be used for the extraction of wounded soldiers from the battlefield with no risk to human life.
 The humanoid robot uses a powerful hydraulics system to carry humans and other heavy objects over long distances and rough terrain such as stairs.
 The robot's cameras and microphone allow an operator to remotely control the BEAR.
 Daniel Theobald invented the robot in 2005 and it was featured in Time Magazine's Best Inventions of 2006.
 The BEAR is currently still being developed and tested for applications on and off of the battlefield.
The Multi-function Agile Remote-Controlled Robot (MARCbot) is a military robot created by Exponent Inc. for the United States Army Rapid Equipping Force.
Lethal autonomous weapons (LAWs) are a type of military robot designed to select and attack military targets (people, installations) without intervention by a human operator.
 LAW are also called lethal autonomous weapon systems (LAWS), lethal autonomous robots (LAR), robotic weapons, or killer robots.
 LAWs may operate in the air, on land, on water, under water, or in space.
 The autonomy of current systems as of 2016 is restricted in the sense that a human gives the final command to attack - though there are exceptions with certain "defensive" systems.
Short Circuit is a 1986 American comic science fiction film directed by John Badham and written by S. S. Wilson and Brent Maddock.
