Joshua was the name given to a line of androids manufactured by Cryer Pharmaceuticals. The developement of Joshua 1 was announced in 350 A.S., after Cryer Pharmaceuticals obtained a patent for cybernetic individuals for use in scientific and industrial environments the same year. The first commercially available Joshua, Joshua 4, was created in 370 A.S. and successfully improved work-flow and efficiency around Sirius. The latest model, Joshua 7, possesses human emotions and is almost indistinguishable from human individuals.
History
During the construction process, one Joshua 7 presented a dilemma to his Cryer operator after he demonstrated the ability to think freely. Initially, the Cryer employee engaged the routine disassemble protocol under the grounds of "non-stable behavior". The scared Joshua android simply responded, "I want to live." It is not known why, but the Cryer operator aborted the disassemble protocol, and allowed the Joshua 7 to be shipped with the others to an offsite sale location. It is there that the free thinking Joshua forcibly escaped the sale location, stole a starship, and flew into space.
Characteristics
Technology
Joshua is a perfect confluence of technologies. His advanced cybernetic vision has been further improved to include focus-adjust in low light conditions. And a new global location mapping algorithm identifies Joshua’s coordinates and returns him to a pre-programmed rendezvous point. Joshua’s Pursuance Protocol ensures quality performance: given a project to complete, Joshua will see it done.
Intelligence
With a fluid intelligence on the order of 10^12 neurons or 200 petaflops, Joshua exhibits twice the neural net capacity of humans. The new sensory-data processor in Joshua combines perfect human reasoning with the most advanced cybernetic computing power. Owing to such technology, Joshua can function autonomously in any human environment, displaying complex human intellectual traits such as curiosity and self-motivation towards a final objective.
Strength
An advanced polyurethane coating replicates the biological properties of human skin to exact texture, pliability and tensile strength. With a cadmium alloy endoskeleton, Joshua’s frame can withstand over 1,000 pounds of compression force. Micro-distributed accelerometers provide ultra-keen kinesthetic awareness. And as a new design feature, Joshua has been programmed in several common sports modes; he now enjoys basketball, cycling, golf and more.
Emotions
For Jusha, Cryer’s emotional encoding software has been redesigned to include recognition of thousands more facial expressions than previous models. Proprietary expression mapping sensors allow Joshua to interpret critical human emotional states. The evaluation process happens at synaptic speed, instantly sending thousands of micro-facial movements into effect, giving Joshua a remarkably natural, human response.
