T-800 is a terminator model played by Arnold Schwarzenegger. The robots of this series become the main characters of the films "Terminator", "Terminator 2: Judgment Day" and "Terminator: Genisys". Also, the T-800 appear in the film "Terminator: May the savior come." This robot model is considered the most successful, despite the constant emphasis on its "obsolescence". Compared to newer intelligent machines, the T-800 terminator, the photo of which can be seen in the article, is much more enduring and durable.
Model specifications
- The power source of the terminator is located in the chest - it is a small reactor plant with two fuel elements.
- T-800 has very reliable armor, as it is based on a titanium alloy frame that follows the outlines of a human skeleton.
- In the skull of the terminator is a device that allows machines to detect each other and communicate. This processor can operate in two modes. Extended is used by terminators when performing single tasks - it allows you to learn new things. Standard mode is set for most robots.
- Vision is provided by sensors hidden behind organic eyes. Robots have the ability to detect thermal radiation, so it is easier for them to find people in the dark and in the ruins. The visual system is very durable, it continued to function even after such damage as the explosion of a fuel truck and heavy fire to kill.
- The terminator's organic coating is capable of regeneration. It is possible to heal small injuries, even to grow a skin covering on a whole limb. But the stronger the damage, the longer it will take to recover. At the same time, the robot does not experience pain from injuries, but simply feels damage, reading information about the damage.
Armor Reliability
The T-800's armor was tested for strength in a variety of ways. So, in the first film, the terminator withstood a shotgun blast in the eye, an accident, a collision with a road train, an explosion of a fuel truck, numerous shots, and burning on fire. Even the T-800, torn into two halves, continued to try to complete the task.
In the second film, he survived a fight with a more modern T-1000 terminator and fire from the police. He was also pierced through with a steel bar.
In the fourth film, the T-800 was fired three times from a grenade launcher and hit several dozen times from firearms. After that, several tons of molten metal fell on him, and he also fought with a completely new model of a cyborg.
In the fifth film, the terminator's hand was hit by a stream of acid, but this only damagedskin membrane, while the T-1000 model was completely dissolved.
Features of the T-800 model
- Terminators of this series can be either without a skin cover or with a shell that imitates human living tissue. Not disguised as people, the T-800 was actively used to hunt for survivors. And models with an organic shell were used in tasks when robots had to infiltrate human groups.
- By analyzing the facial expression of a person, the robot can copy the movement of the muscles. This is how the terminator (model T-800) learns to smile, although it turns out to be unnatural.
- The robot is able to imitate the voices of various people, capturing a very wide range (even women's and children's voices). The T-800 records someone else's speech and then uses it as a template. The terminator's own voice is very dry and mechanical, without expressing any emotion.
- The T-800 Terminator cannot be distinguished in the crowd, as both externally and to the touch the robot is identical to a human. They even have their own scents, and the organic camouflage makes for the perfect camouflage. Only specially trained dogs could tell a terminator from a human.
- Analysis of weather conditions, calculation of the distance between itself and the object, reading the emotional state of a person, calculating the weight - all this can be done by the T-800 terminator. Photos of objects are uploaded directly to his head, as well as various data obtained from infobases.
Interesting facts
The idea of creating terminators came to James Cameron after editing the film "Piranha 2", when he was sleeping with a high temperature and had a dream about a killer cyborg with red eyes
When choosing clothes, the T-800 prefers the biker subculture, and distinguishes motorcycles from transport. However, if necessary, the terminator chooses a transport that is more suitable for a particular situation

Model T-850
The T-800 series has two improvements. The first of these is the T-850, which becomes the main character in the movie Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines.
T-850 is similar in appearance to the T-800 model. Specifications are different: it has a stronger endoskeleton, human flesh is easier to remove. The terminator has knowledge of various sciences in its head, and the internal computer itself processes information faster than the old model.
T-888
This T-800 upgrade only appeared in Terminator: Battle for the Future.
T-888 has a frame made of refractory coltan. He is able to recover even when the head is completely separated from the body. Unlike the T-800 model, whose purpose was to eliminate or protect people, the T-888 can perform diverse tasks. So, he was looking for material from which in the futurewill produce robots. The model has more developed abilities to infiltrate human society, the terminator even has a sense of humor.
Arnold Schwarzenegger brilliantly played the role of a robot in several films of this series. The T-800 model has gained great fame and popularity among fans of Terminator films.
