Comments on BigDog Robass More Coordinated Than I Am
I was startled to observe this level of progress in the creation of quadrupedal robots. (Read
the complete story)
| "That was amazing. It was like watching a real animal move, especially when it slipped on the ice, and when that guy kicked it. It won't be long until they make 2 legged robots with that kind of balance and agility." (Jeff 3/17/2008 11:26:32 PM) |
| "Seeing it recover from that kick was the clincher for me too. If I ever saw one of those in the forest , I think I would freak out." (Zac Hunter 3/18/2008 1:28:37 PM) |
| "Problem, however, when it slipped on the ice, it changed direction, that would not help in the battlefield!
Plus, what if something like a n explosion happened beside it? what would it do if it were on it's back?
" (Dante Ashton 3/25/2008 3:56:59 AM) |
| "well done but i agree with Dante what if it falls on it's side or back, i cna tink of a few ways this could be fixed but is there a way or do the troops have to stop and pick it up?" (Brandon H 3/10/2010 4:49:14 PM) |
