BigDog is back! Beta Video

You may remember BigDog from a blog entry I posted a couple of weeks ago, well here's the latest video of it in action...creepily majestic really, haha.



Haha, I think they nailed how the robot walks, and it's just overall funny Also goes on to prove that if ANYTHING is even remotely big on the internet, it WILL be parodied. haha. It was made by some guy Peter Furia who has some links to the blog Gizmodo

BigDog...future AT-AT?

Wow, this is some Quadraped that Boston Dynamics is working on with funding from DARPA....seriously, how freaky is this thing? It looks so alive. The part that freaks me out the most is seeing it on ice, reminded me of bambi. Also when they kick it and it doesn't fall down?! CRAZY. This thing can carry 340 lbs and I'm pretty sure it will be carrying some weapons...but more importantly, it could carry me! Beats the crap out of a horse anyday.
