jesus, the ay that thing moves is scarey. it could go alot faster, look how quick it moves when it has to correct balance. put jaws and a head on it and sick it after terrorists lol
-
Man that thing is freaky, I thought it looked like some sort of drone that would be in War of the Worlds. Anyway that thing is incredible, the way it corrects itself is amazing.
-
:uhoh
-
Things have come a long way. That would be great for exploring Mar's surface.
-
Wont be long and it will have guns on it.
Pretty amazing really.

Crow T. Robot: Heeeeeeey! You can see the string!
:D
-
Did you work with creating that?
:O WOW !
Won't be long till it ends up on Sci-Fi shows about aliens visiting the earth...
Show Commentator...
"a farmer from Iowa awoke at 3 am to find a strange being moving in his cornfield, he took out his video camera and recorded this strange footage." "Look how it moves it is clearly not of this world."
Cue wierd music......
You wouldn't happen to know about the Loch Ness monster or Bigfoot now would you????
:aok :rofl

The implications and military useage that that thing brings to mind are frightening. It's kind of scary what our technology is now allowing us to do. On the lighter side when it was on the ice it reminded me of me after a hard night drinking when i was younger except i usually ended up falling down. :lol

that thing is freaking spooky. It gives me the willies.

It is pretty cool, however I think the enemy will think a bunch of bumble bees are chasing them by the sounds..
as a side note, I think it's clear we are "The Empire" by now, but hell I liked the Tie Fighters better anway..
-
Does move well though.
-
The way it revovers from a sumble is something i've never seen before.

Check out their site:

DARPA funded, the RiSE is one creepy thing too.

Put something quiet like a fuel cell setup on it, load it down with gear, and tell it to follow the guy in front of it. The return of the pack mule without the easy refueling. ;) Put a hundred out in the battlefield, hobbling their way back and forth across the area. If anyone shoots one, log the location and flag it for attention. If someone interferes with it or moves near it, have it uplink video as long as it can. In the meantime, use it to carry supplies where needed, with proper randomization routines that make it infeasible for the enemy to follow without being seen by another M.U.L.E.
Remember the idea I suggested a few weeks ago about flooding a country w/ observer bots? This could be a good start, it'll eventually turn into a real mountain-goat.

I think we all know how this will end up.

Better start digging the bunker.
-
The end is near! Repent! :devil Freaky sucker, ain't it? I wonder if it has a cup holder.

I for one, will welcome our soulless robot overlords. With a nice shaped charge to its computer brains. :salute Now I need to find out how to turn ordinary household supplies into explosives, for the robot uprising, resistance. God I love the internet. :lol http://www.robotuprising.com/ (http://www.robotuprising.com/)

That's essentially what it's already set up to do-It was carrying 4 packs' on it's main body.
Of course, it could be modified to carry all sorts' of things, up to it's weight limit. Or configured to use weapons...Imagine this becoming the first "man through the door" in L.E. applications? Maybe you have someone who you have to serve a no-knock on...send in the robot wielding a 12-gauge shotgun...Oh, and paint "BATF" on it, in big white letters.
