Re: Road to Hope

Both industrial robots and autonomous free-moving robots are widely used in Kyanah society. These tend to rely on artificial muscle technology via shape-memory alloys to move in an energy efficient manner and navigate terrain that would stump wheeled robots or legged robots with conventional actuato...

Re: Road to Hope

The typical Kyanah approach to AI differs substantially from the human approach. They don't see it as in any way trying to trying to create intelligent software--let alone sentient software--but instead simply about algorithmically finding answers to certain types of questions that are difficult to ...

Re: Road to Hope

Terrestrial transport is heavily dominated by nuclear power, not just in the military sector, but also for civilian transport. Unlike on Earth, where nuclear energy is often met with public skepticism, red tape and safety concerns, Kyanah city-states in affluent regions have adopted nuclear-powered ...

Re: Road to Hope

Note that in all of these tech posts, the present is with respect to Y976, the year that Project Hope launches towards Earth, or about AD 1863...the canon hasn't been fully decided for Kyanah civilization on the Homeworld after that point. Kyanah agricultural technology has advanced in several major...
