Getting pretty close to lifelike...

that's pretty fukn impressive robotics! especially the righting itself when kicked over & the slipping on the ice & righting itself. more of a horsoid than a dogoid though i rekn... its farkn big! :D The jumping over pads was cool too.

next mars rover design? :P

ok, thats fukin scary!

That is amazing, and don't the legs look like 2 japanese guys in black suits facing each other while carrying a sack of crap (especially near the ice).
I felt bad when he kicked it.

Haha holy s***! The bit where it slips on the ice is awesome... and then walking over the rubble!!

judgement day is nearing

bloody hell, that thing'd be usefull in rescue situation where it's unsafe to send in the firey's

i would freak out if i saw that walking through the forest.

rotating duel minigun mount on top ftw

thats pretty cool

i for one welcome our new jumping doggy overlords.

thats some cool s***

That's very cool and yet profoundly disturbing. I like my robots less lifelike, thanks.

Incredible stuff.

The human faces they're working with are the most disturbing for me.

Pretty neat

impressed++;

Its like some sort of weird german porn... headless dobbermans with vibrators.

now that^ would be cool

Shrapse showed this to me on his pc about 2 years ago so i wonder how fkn tricked up dogbot is now!

Obes, your ability to draw the connection between robo-dog and german porn is a talent... a rather disburbing one...

army / nasa will be looking at this surely.

That would scare the crap outta me if I saw that walking around. A nice walk in the bush could easily change to a nightmare if you came across that thing.

that was fricken awesome, and scary

There was a comment on the dogbot page:

It's so disturbing that I felt sorry for it after it got kicked. That does not bode well for my survival in the coming robot apocalypse.

:(

NEW VIDEO RELEASED!!!!!

oh lol

lawl

rofl. the real one did a better job of staying on its feet.

HAhahahaha ^

I love this thing, It's brilliant. My gf believes it's terrifying and should be destroyed though.

There's also someone working on bi-ped robot that can take a bit of a pushing

Thats funny, had to happen.

BTW, the same guys have a made a little dog. Very very cool.

they could atleast put something on it that resembles a head, so it doesn't look totally f***ing freaky

Yeah like a scooby doo head or something to make it cute

I guess at least we'll always know which of us are toasters...
