Technology

A 500-watt electric pump serves as the robot's "heart," pushing fluid at 40 standard liters per minute.

As usual, when you read the article you stumble upon a gigantic technical hurdle. 😕

EDIT: And I'm not against the technology. I'm all for prosthetics and humanoid robots for menial work.

Just imagine the possibilities if full human-pike prosthetics are developed. Think of people who have lost their arms or legs, suddenly being able to walk again.

(And of course, applied robotics for sex bots 😉)

Someone on reddit had the idea that people working on this thing are probably recording audio logs onto individual USB-sticks, which they then leave scattered all over the facility.

not creepy at all... hey what's that flash disk lying on the table

Almost like a robot.

Now have it stand on the ground without supports.

While it seems spooky having a whole body twitching, I do appreciate the research being done.

I think we should be excited about these things. Mainly because research like this will lead to better prosthetic limbs for those who need them. We don't need Terminators or Robomaids, but we do need more natural robotic arms and legs for those in need.

Data? Is that you?

You know, it was super creepy until I got to the video without a soundtrack and found out they sound like farts.

Leave it to humans to build a robot for the purpose of lynching it.

We don't deserve Earth.

Getting strong RE4 vibes

When I clicked on the video I was expecting nightmare fuel, but seemed more like ...
