Applicable BYOND Key - ChewingToffee
Character Name - Kip Di Lucchi
Request Type - Invention
Request Details - Not a new invention, but rather a proper cementing of details for an old, approved invention. Made to ensure concrete details and that any future applications follow the same format.
Reason why you are making this request (if applicable) - During and after the Geladyne vs. Meiaquar war, there was a lot of confusion and questions about the robots that I didn't have all the answers for. So I'm aiming to remedy that by creating a proper list of details about the robots and how they function, and what makes them special in regards to their role in the nation they were made to serve.
Roleplay & Lore supporting your request - With Meiaquar R&D only now starting to begin work on new robot models, this is all old roleplay information. The robots and Anchor Point have been worked on for years, ICly, and are the basis of the factory's creation with the intent of creating a steady stream of made-to-order automatons - with production currently taking a turn for what can be done in the future with new ideas and modifications.
Inspiration - Years ago, when Kip had just become a Noble of Meiaquar and tensions were high, she proposed the idea of utilizing the nation's technological flair to its advantage by introducing a proper, fully-automated force that could protect the people of the city defensively and through force, if need be.
Limitations - The document below explains the basic jist of how Anchor Points work, but there are notable limitations. As with any machine, interfering with its circuitry through electricity or other means can disconnect it from the Anchor Point and render it weakened or immobilized depending on the strength. Focus expenditure is a real issue if Anchor Points are put under enough strain, as these models lack a means of gaining focus on their own. Currently, the orders the robots can be given are very simple ones. Their sight is based on focus signatures and are incapable of making complex decisions without guidance from allies (guards, officers, soldiers, etc). The robots are bulky, but easily outsmarted because they lack even instinct or the ability to improvise. They are effectively bolsters to the defense of Meiaquar that won't be capable of much on their own.
Existing Technology - These robots use the basis of the technology that Engineers have access to, but with the added quality and research of Meiaquarese craftsmanship and ingenuity to make them capable of serving their purpose without needing to be watched constantly by an operator.
Development Time - These automatons have been in the works for several years ICly, though the logs of their initial creation weren't saved. As of the war, there have been no new, direct developments of this technology.
Below is a document with details on the robots themselves. It will serve as a hub for any future models to be kept if they are approved as well.
