Okay that is a tad scary their robots are getting better and not so clumsy. Maybe it is time to stock up. I am not sure i want to face one of those unarmed. lol 

[Korrelan]

I know what you mean, every new video shows more capabilities. 

I'd love to see their code base though. It must rely heavily on inverse kinematics.

They're basically building a Terminator aren't they

In reality, Yes. In media reports, it's for testing military Clothing! Sure it is...

Stronger, bigger, faster...and on it goes. It's ion reactor can power it for 6 months!

(OK...I made that up...)

Got to it first this time eh Korrelan?

RRR these videos always bug me! It isn't thinking like humans, it is just doing some movements.....the real question is what happens if we change around the blocks? Does it generalize to new scenes?

Otherwise it is like saying oh look I stoped a vlocanno just I used time travel to do it and had 9 billion years to carry the lava away yeah yeah of COURSE it works I cheated.

[LOCKSUIT]

And where the hell does Atlas think it is going up there!??? I mean dude what if it mis alignes.....it must be doing lots more I guess then.

[LOCKSUIT]

I was gonna say Art, now they should put some Santa suit or Arnold suit over it to make it finished. Maybe it is all about the clothing after all!

Then again uploading new videos every month of clothless termies is the new fad I guess! Gotta be hip mofo!!!

Lock,

Rest assured it actually does have GPS for positioning, Gyros for stability and balance, extensive camera system(s) for visualization (object location and recognition).
So yes, move those boxes around and see if that really confuses it. (I wouldn't take that bet).

Yep...clothing tester and perhaps a nice combat ready line of footwear. 

[LOCKSUIT]

It is robo clothes i.e. shirtless biceps
   ,athlete parkour fab

Spot mini is the new bikini, looking good!

[LOCKSUIT]

Before you know it, they'll be testing shock abortion of clothing during sniper testing!

Anthropomorphism is fascinating.

Here's another example that struck me, for some strange reason this seems more 'alive' than bots like Sophia.

This seemed like a combination of clockwork (obviously) and steampunk, at its finest!

While watching it begin to animate, I found myself waiting, almost wanting it to speak.

Alas, poor Yorick-punk, I knew him, HoratioSapien.
