BigDog Robot Now Throws Cinder Blocks

by Hilbert Hagedoorn on: 03/04/2013 09:26 AM | source: | 19 comment(s)

BigDog handles heavy objects. The goal is to use the strength of the legs and torso to help power motions of the arm. This sort of dynamic, whole-body approach to manipulation is used routinely by human athletes and will enhance the performance of advanced robots. Boston Dynamics is developing the control and actuation techniques needed for dynamic manipulation with funding from the Army Research Laboratory's RCTA program.

It's like some horse from Silent Hill.

Look at their other videos on their channel:

Now imagine being hunted by any of those deep in some forest.

It don't really have a face so that's a moot point.

Plus i'm sure your first would do massive damage to metal.
