"Hackers can hack into a robot or a robotic device and have full control of the connections, arms, legs and other attached tools like in some cases knives or welding devices," Dr Patterson told Star Online. Adding, "Once a robot is hacked, the hacker has full control and can issue instructions to the robot."
"The last thing you want is for a hacker to have control over one of these robots. Once hacked they could absolutely be used to perform physical actions for an advantageous scenario or to cause damage," Dr Patterson goes on to explain.
Dr Patterson is not the only one concerned about the development of robots. Recently tech billionaire Elon Musk warned that robots could one day take over Earth.
