Very impressive. I still like this dog from several years ago. The way it catches itself when kicked from the side is amazing. Some good military implications as well. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=M8YjvHYbZ9w | |||

With some body armor for protection, it would certainly make a handy inner city mobile explosive devise (MED) for military use for those "hard to reach" places. | |||

That reminds me of this scene from Robocop. Link to original video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mRDl5_-wJ0Y | |||

If your name is "Sarah Conner", I'd suggest changing your name NOW. _______________________ “The only power any government has is the power to crack down on criminals.

When these get weapons attached (i.e. ground 'drones') - which logically can't be very far off looking at that video - I really hope the software is thoroughly debugged and the control communications are secure. But I hope that for the programs and networks I use now. Silly me  | |||

25yrs ago there was a Mitsubishi TV factory that was run by robots that made all of their large (32"+) tube TVs, with (IIRC) only 5 full-time human employees (largely for maintenance). Today we have amazing remote controlled drones, and now we have this thing, which is pretty impressive - its fluidity and agility are as good as I've ever seen. But the thing is - relatively dumb robots are easy, relatively static robots are easy. Remote controlled machines/drones are pretty easy. Automated factories are pretty easy. Making burgers with robots is easy, too. But agile, mobile, autonomous robots who can be trusted to make life and death decisions? They're a long way away, and thank goodness. | |||
