Computopia: A Future Where Robots Teach, Beat And Heal

By Sean Fallon on October 23, 2009 at 10:40 AM

Welcome to Computopia — a 40-year old Japanese vision of how robots might become a part our everyday lives. Compiled by Shōnen Sunday magazine, these illustrations depict robots performing surgeries, teaching in a classroom and beating kids for their insolence.

Interestingly enough, there are several technologies depicted in the series that have actually come to fruition (although they are heavily cloaked in a LSD meets The Jetsons meets Lost in Space kind of style). See if you can pick them out of the gallery posted at Pink Tentacle. [Pink Tentacle]
