Title: A.M.E.E.
Post by: Art on April 13, 2013, 04:47:51 pm

From the movie, Red Planet, featuring Val Kilmer, Carrie-Ann Moss and others, comes A.M.E.E. (Autonomous Mapping Evaluation and Evasion). A robot not too unlike your favorite K-9 unless it is switched to Kill mode. It can stand upright or run about on all fours. Oh...did I mention that it was Very, very, smart.
You can get or watch the movie http://www.wbshop.com/product/code/1000187231.do (http://www.wbshop.com/product/code/1000187231.do)
and you can read a bit more about it from these links:

Of course AMEE was a CG creation...an extremely good one at that! Not so bad movie either!! ::)
