Any technology she touches also ceases to work.Ā This storyline merges myth, fantasy and ideas of alien civilisations, but there is little or no machine vision. However, in one episode we alsoĀ encounterĀ a giant robot in a town called RoboTown. The robot and its "eyes" (drones) protect the townspeople from car accidents in a busy intersection, but Sankofa becomes impatient with its drones constantly watching her and inadvertently "kills" it.Ā
