Midget submarines and new kind of communication technology would revolutionize scientific and military operations.

Infrasound is the fascinating thing, It can be used for many purposes, and one of them is underwater communication technology. In this technology, the modified SONAR systems are used for communicating with small drone-submarines. Those systems allow operating inside the caves and shipwrecks by using remote-controlled miniature submarines.


That system is actually very similar, what was used to take fascinating pictures inside of shipwreck of ocean liner R.M.S Titanic. That system, what was used to take original pictures of that ocean liners inner space was used wires to communicate small Jason robot and Alvin submarine. But there is many limits in this kind of system, what uses cables to control that robot. The modified sonar system, what is used to communicate with modern midget submarines is actually the same kind of underwater telephone, what is used to communication between naval vessels. In this system would the modem just being installed to that underwater telephone.


Underwater modem system would use also LRAD-equipment, what makes possible to send the sound to the drone by using the very thin beam of the voice. Underwater modems are basically same, what are used in 1980's and 1990's. But modern technology makes them faster. If we are talking about scientific drones, what are used to search inside space of shipwrecks, they can also equipped with inertial or gyroscope navigation system, what allows them to record the route, and if the SONAR-communication would cut, the drone would drive it's route back to the point, where it takes the contact. Those systems can also make the train, where those drones would use together as the relay drones, what allows them to operate in very complicated spaces.


There is one big benefit for voice communication compared with LASER-based systems. Lasers need visual contact between transmitters, and if this drone would land behind something, what denies the are contact between transmitters would the communication shut down. When we are talking about military versions of that kind of equipment, we can imagine the small size submarine, what is following some ship below it.


In this scenario the nuclear powered miniature submarine, what could actually be like U.S Navy's Swimmer Delivery Vehicle, but it can be powered by RTG or radio thermal generator, but they can also use conventional power sources like power cells. In those situations, the most effective fuel for those power cells is hydrogen, because it keeps the electrodes clean. That submarine can be carried torpedoes or small submarine launch missiles, and it can be operated from nuclear submarines or surface warships. That submarine can also use to operate with combat scuba diving missions because those torpedoes can be installed outboard its hull.


Deep dived drones can re-arm by using similar CURV or controlled underwater recovery vehicle drone submarines, what are using in underwater rescue missions. So in this kind of cases, the drone can be called in the certain point to the ocean, and then combat diving team would get those men for the mission. Those miniature drone-submarines can deliver to operation from other submarines, they could travel to target independently, or they can drop from airplanes like C-5 or C-130. Or even shoot by rockets from space-centers. In the last case the is like Atlas would carry the drone by Earths orbiter, and then it would land like spacecraft and it can be equipped with thermal shield and parachutes.


Space delivery systems would be useful in the cases where need extremely fast reactions, like submarine accidents, where is needed extreme fast reaction to secure the wreck and it's top secret communication and other systems. Those drones can also use for intelligence missions to harbors. Underwater robots can also operate from ground stations, by using communication buoys. Those buoys can deliver from the satellites, and then the satellite can use that buoy as the relay-station for communication. Then the submarine can collect it from the sea because that would deny that equipment getting to unauthorized hands.

The problems with automation and society

http://crisisofdemocracticstates.blogspot.fi/p/the-problems-with-automation-and-society.html

Kimmo Huosionmaa

In this text, I would handle the automation mainly in the visual angle of sociology and national security. When we are thinking about the use of robots as the production, we must understand the reason, why they are so popular. Robots can make almost everything in production side better than human, and there would no need to pay salaries for the machines. Robots never make mistakes, the people who make programs for robots are making mistakes, and this is one of the worst weakness of those machines.


There is a technique called "CAM", what means "Computer Aided Manufacturing". This term means technology, where the CAD (Computer Aided Design) picture would send straight to the robots, and and then automatized manufacturing process would start. The most advanced version of CAM is 3D printing technology, what allows to make any product by using the printer, what makes 3D objects by using steel, plastic or carbon fiber.


The problem with computers is that they would not have imagined, and they would not actually think anything. This means that if there is an error in the CAD picture, what was imputed to manufacturing robots is an error and nobody notices it, would the large series of those products sour, and that would make worse for the company than any human worker ever can make. In this scenario, even millions of products could be usefulness, because some engineer has made mistake while making the picture for robots.  Those printers are very interested in military forces because they allow making military products like Drones and even heavy combat equipment like tanks in the operational area.


Those systems might also bring the very dangerous element to war because it allows making "black systems" what means airplanes and other equipment, what is not found in the inventory of military forces. And if the system can make spare parts for aircraft or tanks, could those parts used also for making complete products. But when we are thinking the problems of the automation in the social angle of view, we must understand that growing population of the human race, would need something to do. If we are thinking about "ghost factories", where is only robot workers, we are facing the problems of mass unemployment.


People need something to do, and if they would not get any work, they would start to hang in shopping centers. In the works cases, what have seen in books and some futuristic movies all workers have been replaced by robots. And in this kind of version of the production, the profits what company get is very high. Robots can work non-stop and when there is no need for production, would the lines shut down. And the company doesn't have then pay even the electric bill. But in this scenario, there would no need for the human workers, and this would mean massive social problems in the society. This scenario is the highest level of capitalism, what man can ever imagine.

Soon robots would make own decision when they will open the fire


B-52H "Stratofortress"
(Wikipedia)

Kimmo Huosionmaa


Soon airborne combat robots like Predator-drones can make their own decision to open the fire against targets. That system would be most effective in air-combat robots, what are similar than X-47B. Also, it would help to produce flying missile stations like robot versions of B-52 bombers. Those bombers can patrol in years in the atmosphere if there would be fuel supply. And if they would get orders, those planes can attack immediately.  This technology bases the same image recognition system, what is used in many cities.


Image recognition system recognizes the weapons, and then in normal situation calls the security personnel to the positions. But in airborne combat robots, this system would open the fire with missiles and machine guns. Also, the image recognition system allows to track enemy tanks and armored personnel carriers, and then that system would open the fire with laser-guided missiles. In this scenario own troops use the recognition systems, what would send the digital code to those airborne drones, and that helps them to avoid the shoot own military personnel.


But the similar system would be very effective when it is used in early warning satellites. In this case, space-borne ABM (Anti Ballistic Missile) system would be equipped with automatized firing mode. In this case would the early-warning satellite and combat satellite combination orbit around the earth. When the missile launch would be detected, that satellite would use salvo of rocket ammunition against those missiles. The best angle to begin shoot those kinetic-energy rockets is forward to incoming warheads, when the projectile gets best impact energy as possible. Also, the microwave or laser-based systems are probably used in future.


When those warheads or missiles are targeted the microwave band radars, their electronic components would be damaged, and if the core of warhead will be damaged, would it melt in the atmosphere. This would cause that the warhead would not detonate, and radioactive material will be delivered to the area. Of course, that will cause cancer, but for the tactical situation, those radioactive bites do not have influence. The "autonomic" kill mode for those combat robots would, of course, cause reactions against those robots.
