Humannitor
(Category: Revoluntionise the uniform)

“Humannitor” half man half robot Red Cross hero, caped in Roofing iron, food cans, medical scissors, taps spoons and blankets. 

He wears the face of  Dugald MacKenzie a soldier saved  by Red Cross in Crete. His chest bares photos of those he saved, and those he could not.  Lest his memory-stick fail him.  In his pocket is a locket carrying the photo of a beautiful woman, waiting back home for her loved one to return. As programmed Humannitor will carry this safely to her and pass on a message of love.

​Do we really want technology to replace human instinct and compassion?
