Robot Free-for-all

At the grand finale of a Robo League meet, 18 battle bots go at each other at the same time. The fight starts about 2:30 into the video. Keep your eye on the one called Wedgie; he doesn’t win, but he’s entertaining.

You’ll be able to pick the winner before the battle is half over, but the destruction is delicious. -via reddit

Unfortunately tech companies (etc) regularly patent things not because they are possible or because they are working on them but for other reasons (eg: to profit if someone works it out, to block others from developing things, as wild "just in case we need it in 30 years", etc). Just registering a patent means almost nothing about the future chance of things happening. Because the patent system is broken.

This has too much potential for abuse. Imagine beaming images into someone's eyes while he/she is operating heavy equipment or controlling a vehicle - or luring somebody into harm's way. Fortunately, there are bound to be countermeasures.
