Gygan by Dr. Peter Fiorito, the silver giant, is no Hollywood horror creation. He walks, talks, even sings and dances, and is the latest in electronic robots. His “master” is Peter Fiorito, a 35-year-old Italian who built the 9-foot tall in his Milan workshop on a bet. Quite intelligent, Gygan reads the paper and his chest control panel lights up like a pin-ball machine when he gets angry or is amused by the strange antics of human beings.
Fiorito works him by remote control, is convinced that the principles involved will be applied to atomic production, among other uses. Such robots could handle radioactive materials in a nuclear pile, each one doing the work of two humans.
All this is very well and good, but TEMPO wonders what’s going to happen when Gygan wises up and starts demanding an electronic Eve to make world complete? Caption: Obedient robot gently hoists woman into air. Gygan’s strength is incredible, may be put to use in danger atomic piles.
