I disagree. Robots are pretty quick accurate etc. I'm sure with proper sensors a robot could block a bullet with a sword.

So you're saying that a robot could, at the current, detect a bullet, determine the angle and speed, figure out at what angle the katana needs to be held at, and use motors in about a tenth of a second? I think it could do the processing bits, but not the physical stuff.

It's a robot, give it 8 katanas.

We're talking about deflecting bullets, if you'd kept up :P Although a octowielding katana robot would be pretty bitchin.

a quote pyramid. -Duh

If you have a robot capable of wielding 8 katana then just give it big blades welded into the arms. And guns.

a system is capable of being designed that could, in theory, swing a metal object down into the flight path of a bullet in mid-flight

if you preworked the timing and could eliminate all the variables

does this qualify as a robot, and is it useful for combat?

yeah

I'll let you brain surgeons riddle me that one

Actually, screw that. The robot doesn't need to slice bullets in half: it's fighting zombies. Just give it a bunch of guns and maybe one or two bayonets. If it runs out of bayonets just get it to punch the crap out of the zombies.

They'll bend, they'll shatter, they'll rust. I doubt it'd be that careful.

As will its arm joints, if it decides to "punch the crap out of the zombies". I think that 411 was referring to the fact that a bayonet could get stuck on some not-so-rotten zombie, or something like that.

Or maybe it has some kind of gun that fires bayonets yeah the zombies would have a hard time dodging that unless they had some kind of super-cool
katana octopus power oh yeah it'd be awesome

Yeah, I was referring to them getting stuck in zombies or otherwise losing them. Though they'd have a significantly shorter life than the joints if they're in common use.

What's the next suggestion going to be? Strike Freedom Gundam? The Death Star?
EDIT: Nah, suggest what you like, it's a discussion.
Anyway, is robocop a cyborg or a robot? He seems to have a human and therefore zombifiable lower jaw, but I think I remember some stuff about him being a robot with a human brain or something; though then the brain could be zombified... though he has some pretty zombie proof metal over that head of his.
