The '''C-Type''' machine is also known as ''Scout-C'' due to its streamlined design and lack of offensive weapons. It has Divine Hands on both of its arms, and the head region has been stripped of the missile housing, instead containing a large loudspeaker flanked by a pair of flashing sirens on its shoulder. While it does not have autonomous communicative abilities, it can project the voice from its Command Tower and utilize its onboard cameras and sensors in real time. In some of the more prominent cities of Caphiria and worldwide, the C-Type machine has been deployed in the local police force and has proven highly effective. | The '''C-Type''' machine is also known as ''Scout-C'' due to its streamlined design and lack of offensive weapons.

===Crowby=== | |||
The Type-44 Heavy Artillery Robot, also known as Crowby-44 is a project still in development, and little is known about it other than a few leaked documents. The documents describe Crowby-44 as "a giant heavy machine gun on legs," and from the photos in the document, that is a true statement. | |||
Crowby-44 is at least ten feet tall and weighs over 800 pounds; the most recent iteration features a heavy machine gun that fires custom .950 JDJ rounds. Loaded .950 JDJ cases are approximately the length of an empty .50 BMG casing (i.e., 4 in or 10 cm) and are based on a 20×102mm case shortened and necked up to accept the .950 in (24.1 mm) bullet. Projectiles are custom-made and most commonly weigh 3,600 grains (230 g), 8.2 ounces, or over half a pound. The cartridge propels its 3,600 gr (230 g) bullet at approximately 2,200 ft/s (670 m/s). This yields a muzzle energy of 38,685 ft·lbf (52,450 J) and momentum of 154.1 Newton-seconds, about the same as a 20×102mm Vulcan round. | |||
Older versions of Crowby-44 show a seat on top of the machine, indicating that soldiers can mount and ride the machine. Based on documents, the ideas were scrapped because of the intense recoil from the weapon, which caused significant injuries during internal testing. | |||
===VAGAR=== | |||
The SLRU XT38, also known as VAGAR, is a prototype robot designed by Chelovek. The purpose of VAGAR is to "be the best assault support system during land missions and drastically reduce the need for human infantry during select missions." VAGAR is still in early development and is not ready for deployment. It is being designed to go anywhere soldiers and marines go on foot. The development of the first prototype took over 36 months and a team of the best engineers and scientists from the top institutions in the world. | |||
===Divine Hand=== | ===Divine Hand=== | ||
The ''manus divinae'' - literally "divine hands", is a myoelectric, multi-articulating prosthetic hand with five individually powered digits that offers electrically rotating thumbs with manual override. With 20 actuated degrees of freedom, absolute position and force sensors, and ultra-sensitive touch sensors on the fingertips, the Divine Hand provide unique capabilities for problems that require the closest approximation. A Divine Hand also has four under-actuated movements for 24 joints. Each joint has a movement range again the same as or very close to that of a human hand, including the thumb and even the flex of the palm for the little finger. With 129 sensors in total, a Divine Hand provides detailed telemetry, which can be exploited to generate innovative manipulation control systems or to provide a detailed understanding of the external environment. As well as absolute position sensing for each joint, Divine Hands includes force sensing for each actuator, tactile sensing on fingertips, temperature and motor current, and voltage sensing. All this data is made available to the Command Tower from 100Hz and up to 1kHz via a high bandwidth EtherCAT interface. Supporting this high frequency for information is the fast movement of the hand – from open to closed in 0.3 seconds. | The ''manus divinae'' - literally "divine hands", is a myoelectric, multi-articulating prosthetic hand with five individually powered digits that offers electrically rotating thumbs with manual override.

DYNAMICLINK™ is highly customizable, allowing customers to configure their systems to meet their specific needs. The system is also equipped with user-friendly software that makes it easy for operators to manage their robots, even those with limited technical knowledge. The system has a unit cost of approximately $500,000, generating approximately $2.3 billion in revenue for the Gura Corporation and Silver Lineworks. | DYNAMICLINK™ is highly customizable, allowing customers to configure their systems to meet their specific needs.

===Templar Project=== | ===Templar Project=== | ||
The | The Templar Project is a highly secretive project being worked on by world-renowned robotics engineer [[Paulo Gura]], the founder of the Gura Corporation and current head of Gura Advanced Design Solutions (GADS). In his own words, Gura has said, "Templar is more than my final engineering project before retirement. It's more than just the largest, the most expensive, the longest project in development...Templar represents a schism in the grand development of humanity, a schism that will define the next step in our race." | ||
Many of Silver Lineworks' existing projects serve as working prototypes for specific mini-projects; a notable example is the | In the broadest sense, the Templar Project is a multi-faceted engineering project that aims to create the world's first synthetic organism with accurate full artificial intelligence. The project started over thirty years ago and has spent hundreds of millions of dollars since its inception and will continue well after Paulo retires. While the Templar Project has one clear purpose, it is hundreds of "micro-projects" that drive the progress forward. There are apparent technological hurdles involved, namely in artificial intelligence. The micro-projects help to tackle the scope of the project, focusing on more minor and more actionable things, such as building a framework and robotic skeleton that will become the basis of the machine, as well as things like getting limb articulation correct. | ||
Many of Silver Lineworks' existing projects serve as working prototypes for specific mini-projects; a notable example is the Divine Hand, which continues to be iterated on for the specific purpose of the Templar Project. Another significant milestone occurred in 2024 when a team from Achlon Robotics created a human skull replica by programmed nanomachines. A notable advancement was made about the "brain" of the skull, which taps into a neural network that, in turn, is directly linked to the Internet. By learning and studying from hundreds of websites, sources, and IxTube videos, the "brain" (composed of a custom nanotube compound) can analyze patterns and create a semi-autonomous "thought," and make very rudimentary human-like decisions. | |||
The most recent milestone was the completion of the EE-06 Smart Skin. The Smart Skin is not one "skin." Still, dozens of smaller skins and components are designed to mimic the look, feel, and texture of human-like skin and, at the same time, provide the necessary reinforcements on the top of the skeleton to ensure stability. Made from high-quality Fullerene-intrinsically conducting polymers and a superalloy multi-function structure, the Smart Skin is the product of a dozen combinations of technologies. While very little is known about the Smart Skin, it has passed basic stability testing and can withstand temperatures up to 600 degrees, and does not compress until a minimum of 600 lbs of force. | The most recent milestone was the completion of the EE-06 Smart Skin.
