Terminator dog!

Thats pretty awesome how it can balance itself after being kicked but that danm buzzing sound is annoying. Why not just train real dogs?
 
That's a pretty impressive piece of kit! :O
 
whoah, es muy chevere :O
the legs are kinda creepy though. also, not to be used for stealth operations!
 
That's kind of scary.

I noticed it didn't make that loud motor sound when it was plugged in. But why would a battery make so much noise?
 
Woah that is damned awesome.
It's like a big AIBO, but better!
 
That's quite creepy in a way. If you watch the feet, it moves so much like people. I wish the guy would've ridden it. Sadly, to be honest, I don't see much use to this for the military. Maybe hikers, but not the army.
 
That's extremely creepy. You know why? The legs look exactly like the legs on a Stalker in HL2. It's like a Stalker-dog thing.


*shivers*
 
I want to see a two legged robot. Faster and shoots lasers out of their eyes.
 
Where's the ****ing head!? Where's the ****ing head!? I'm freaking out here, guys! This thing is is like the headless dog that wandered up to my porch the other evening! It's got boomerangs for feet, and no head!

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!
 
wow, that thing is awesome! I want one to carry my stuff around....its really friggen loud though

Sounds like a chainsaw, and the poor thing will undoubtedly take alot of abuse, because soldiers will get a kick out of kicking it around.

This makes me sad. Poor robo dog, i'll fight for your right to be treated properly! <sniff>
 
Read about this on Slashdot. Meant to take the gear load off of infantry (as well as replaced rolling vehicles, which are restricted to semi-maintained roads), many of the comments focused on how much better a real mule still is, especially ones trained for combat. However, the balancing act is no joke - I'd really like to take a gander at the code driving that system. Many years in the future, when we have walking vehicles, we'll look back on this as one of the pioneering steps towards a functional balance/ambulatory system.

SHIT, the balance of humanity is shifting out of control! In the future when AT-AT's and AT-ST's roam the lands, Luke Skywalker and the rebels won't be able to trip them properly, and we'll be doomed!

DOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMED
 
"Go for the legs! Use your harpoons and tow cables!"
"It's no use, Luke. The rebel alliance is doomed."

the reason for its loudnes is a two stroke gas engine, that powers the hidraulics. That's just a technical problem, probably will be solved when a they discover a good portable energy source!

BTW...nice to see where all the taxpayers money is going!
 
I think it would be more cost-effective to have the soldiers carry them.
 
Haha, that's awesome. When he kicked it... :D
 
It started off about this high...and I just kept adding to him ever since!
 
I think it's designed to be scary as well for physcological warfare.

Why dosen't it have a cover?
 
Bigger versions with seats and mounted weapons would be the new war-elephants.

that would look AWESOME!
 
Now all they need is a pantomime horse costume for it to wear.
