You can back this Alexa-powered Terminator smart speaker on Kickstarter — and bring us one step closer to the robot apocalypse

Why wait for Amazon's smart voice assistant Alexa to take over the world when you can just get straight to the point.

You can now pre-order a smart speaker that's built in the shape of the head of the human killing robots from "The Terminator" series. The polished alloy gadget is a dead-ringer for the ones that tormented Sarah Connor, only it's voiced and powered by Alexa, not Arnold Schwarzenegger or — worse yet — Skynet. 

Cyberdyne, err, AC Worldwide, an England-based audio products startup, on Friday launched a Kickstarter crowdfunding campaign for its new smart speaker. Check it out:

The Terminator T-800 smart speaker is modeled after the T-800 robots from "The Terminator" films. That's the robot Schwarzenegger depicted.

Each of the T-800 speaker's eyes is illuminated with a red light to replicate the T-800 robot's menacing gaze. The gadget's left eye also contains a high-definition camera.

Yes, with your funding, you can give Alexa — via the T-800 speaker — the gift of sight, which should accelerate its efforts to kill off the human race.  

The T-800 will even come with motion sensing so it can keep an eye out for intruders ... or study your behavior before it strikes.

You can apply a filter to shots taken with the speaker's camera to replicate the T-800's head-up display.
