fluffy trojan

Thursday, January 3. 2008

For those of you which have missed 24c3 and "Security nightmares 2008" (get the recording at http://outpost.h3q.com/fnord/24c3-torrents/ ) here is the right trojan for your bosses desk (the features just lack network connectivity):

• camera-based vision system (for light detection and navigation)
• two microphones, binaural hearing
• eight touch sensors (head, chin, shoulders, back, feet)
• four foot switches (surface detection)
• fourteen force-feedback sensors, one per joint
• orientation tilt sensor for body position
• infrared mouth sensor for object detection into mouth
• infrared transmit and receive for communication with other Pleos
• Mini-USB port for online downloads
• SD card slot for Pleo add-ons
• infrared detection for external objects
• 32-bit Atmel ARM 7 microprocessor (main processor for Pleo)
• 32-bit NXP ARM 7 sub processor (camera system, audio input dedicated processor)
• four 8-bit processors (low-level motor control)
