Anyone else amazed by this quadruped robot with insane balance?

Code: Select all

A group named Boston Dynamics built it. It's just awesome to watch, let alone see what they plan to do with it.

I noticed the front legs are patterned to a person walking backwards and the back legs are patterned to a person walking forward. And it walks like a newly born horse.

With it's speed right now. The enemies will notice that coming from a mile away.

You think with military funding it will stay the same speed?

mahumps · Post by **mahumps** » Fri Jul 11, 2008 7:24 am

No that's why I said "right now". God this machine can be the future suicide bomber. Or a thing like in the stealth movie.

Kind of reminds me of the thing in Half-Life 2, I think it was called Dog...

It's probably more difficult to create a true quadruped than to link up two bipeds. I would imagine that they are working towards horse-like joints, and this is just a step in the process.

"BBBBBBBBAAAAAzzZZZzzzZzZZ" OH DOM YOU ARE SO FANNY. (NO SARCASM)

I love the fact that you can kick it with all your might and make it look funny at the same time and the robot will still not fall
