Short Circuit - A great film where technology and electronics combined to create a fantastic robot, who ended up being called "Johnny 5". The electronics and pcb design can actually be seen in this guy (sorry robot) when he needs to be fixed up.
Star Wars – Technology is in abundance with these films as you would expect when you take on Darth Vader. Even the modern CGI and technology cannot take away the electronics and almost human characteristics of R2-D2 and C3PO.
Science fiction film, 'Minority Report' sees an interesting mix of electronics, pcb design and access systems. Retina scanners are used by the tiny robot that checks a person’s identity. Interestingly this form of technology is potentially being installed into banks and US Air Force bases.
After all, eyes are unique and cannot be replicated. Unless you use the persons eyes like in Angels and Demons to gain access to the lab. This is one of the eye watering parts of the film though.
Voice recognition features in ‘Richie Rich’. Wealthy parents set up the access code to their vault by using voice recognition, based on frequency. This seems like a great way of using electronics and pcb design to create secure access.
