BigDog Quadraped Robot

[Tinto4]

Obscene.

[ShivuTheWolf]

What is the buzzing for anyway? Is it even essential?? I mean, is the engine or whatever???

[NatashaLV]

0:29 THIS IS SPARTA!!! awesome robot!

[Hopejones01]

Watch out! Before long these things will be takin over the world lol! X nah igscreepy but kinda cool!

[bombersander]

when it walks trough the snow it sounds like the engine soun is actually the soun of him shiverring in the cold xD

[skeilak]

Amazing technology, but...

There is something decidedly creepy about this thing.

And to those asking about the noise; they are powering this prototype with a chain-saw motor. (Great power to weight ratio.) Obviously the finished military product will be powered by something far quieter.

[lore8953]

whats the noise? lol

[poltergiest11]

AAAAAAAAAAAAAH SO SSSSSSCAAAAAAAAAAAAARY AAAAAAAAAAAH!

[EwBriii]

This reminds me of a monster from Silent Hill.

The whole...fused bodies thingy...

[420witchdoctor]

Dress it up a little bit and it would be perfect for a horror movie.

[MrGuitarassassin]

looks like something you would see in a horror movie like resident evil.

[yannquix]

That robot looks like one of my scariest nightmares lol look how it walks! CRREEEPPPYYY!

[themousemaster]

i have an urge to kick it

[grindcoreman90]

Quadraped...

Quad Raped

[OnsotineFilms]

The legs are creepy.

[UltimaMathias]

The leg movement is creepy...

[dontfuckthisup]

install carseats for babies on top, stop research, and initiate mass production.

[Chenk007]

Demonic legs!

[shimsham35]

perfect stealth bot it's whisper quiet

[erjohnson227]

Yes. i was thinking the same thing. One of these could sneak up on me and i wouldnt ever hear it coming.

[rupleskinner]

I would like to see these armed with a light precision gun, a door buster grenade launcher, and a suicide explosive pack Just imagine a whole group of these air dropped into some of those remote pakistani villages. The remote control operators could pick the place clean. Have a loud speaker on them so the cia agent could yell "Boston Dynamics Akbar!!!" just before hitting the self destruct button.

[gunforsale]

@rupleskinner hahaha that would be fun to see - all the terrorist going "WTF?"

[lunasa2]

音が気持ち悪さをひきたてるなあｗｗ

[zombat]

When robots gain sentience they'll watch this video.

They'll see humans kicking their retarded ancestors.

Then they'll go on a killing rampage

[degude]

@zombat I think you watched to many movies^^

[aidan160]

That thing scares the hell out of me.

[Needham90]

The missing link for Metal Gear

[SuperYouPoop]

Boston Dynamics is funded by DARPA wich is paid by the government to create a robot to escort you all to the FEMA concetration-camps were u will get executed with poison and gas that is paid by the work off your own labor ... EPICLY SAD...

These things are made resistenace proof u should see them with automatic rifle mods...

DONT BELIEVE ME? LETS WAIT AND SEE WHEN MARTIAL LAW HITs THE STREETs

[dss8345]

Why don't you just sell most of your worldly possessions and go live in the hills if you're that afraid of the government. I would love to see this thing with a Dillon mini gun strapped to its back and sent into a war zone.

[timkinsey2000]

it looks like two guys facing each other hooked up at the torso. pretty cool, robots will be everywhere!

[kd7twf]

im sitting there waiting for it to just book shit and start jumping over things like in the movies lol.

[xxxKOWAKxxx]

not bad

[EdCarvalho71]

Well, thats where The Imperial AT-AT Walkers seen on Star Wars start.

[FridgeRebel]

Fahrenheit 451 anyone?

[061342]

in ten years it will hunt down humans :(

[StopMotionMind]

Quadraped robot?

WHO THE FUCK WOULD RAPE A ROBOT WITH FOUR DICKS??????

[yeomans4u]

did anyone notice it says raped in the title?

[chovixnator017]

put some lazers in dat shit

[ObjMatt2]

Its only noisy today because it runs on gas - its in development. In future it will run on high storage batteries and be silent. They will hunt in packs and cross correlate information with drones from above that will be able to see thru all conditions. Lets start being better humans today and get on the same page - otherwise the "bad guys" of the future may be "all humans" - 'cause you realize that all future predictions are that we achieve super human intelligence sometime before 2030

[alishqa]

you know, there's no need to be scared of this. Imagine: ur a soldier and are fleeing through the woods, you expect someone to come hunt you with that robot. By the sound this thing makes, you know if its on your heels and from what direction its coming from long before it even spots you.

[FridgeRebel]

Yeah obviously this thing is totally perfected and ready for the battle field right?

[modeler308]

I saw this droid on Fox News a few weeks ago. Interesting but noisy. A good test but its obviously an early stage prototype. Keep at it guys.

[just2ushar]

what it can do instead of walking?

[AgentJayZ]

This is an incredible machine.

It is so sophicticated in its autonomous motion control that it blurs the line between animate and machine.

It allows us a glimpse at the future, and I can't wait to see more.

If it was powered by a fuel cell and electric motor, it would be nearly silent, and then it would be quite scary.

[lonewulf44]

1 RPG versus BigDog ... I think the buzzing would stop. What is it's purpose .. bomb search? Pack mule? Or to just give nightmares to anyone who sees the thing!?

[asitrathod1]

very funny video..

[udapud]

this freaks the hell outa me for some reason.

[gelatinousturncoat]

It even Moo's like a gekko! The days of metal gear solid are coming!

I call dibs on being raiden.

[cousonian]

there is something extremely unsettling about the way it moves, imagine if it had some sort of organic looking shell to make it look like some monster dog thing lol

[DarkSciences]

If you are generally concerned by this then you should stop on by our website...

[CrazehPivotKid]

it looks like could ride on that big thing.

[BiancoArmonico]

Love the way it can balance so well.

Tho I hate the sound it makes o_o"

[dallasnick]

Now if only they could make it not sound like a giant bee from Hell...

[degude]

@dallasnick It is because it needs a gas engine to produce electric power. The gas engine drives very high and that is why it is so loud

[8legged]

can it just stand still for a second?

it looks like it has to pee in a hurry.

[faridperez]

Looks like two guys facing each other while trying to move a piano...creepy!

[AManOfHope]

Very wierd. It almost looks startled and in a panic when you kick it. It has that "What the Hell man!?" motion to it lol.

[joechan777]

i like big dog

[sarkasmi83]

Quadraped :D ... Amazing balance. :)

[evilborg]

damn that is just cool as hell

[hrdcdr]

genious!

[modeler308]

How well does it function with armor plating and weapons?,.Can it be used to kill terrorists? What is its survivability under fire? Can it be made to function silently for stealth ops?

[xklousiv]

what a dumbass you are...

[modeler308]

Quel est-ce que des dumbass je suis ? . .if que vous ne voyez pas que les demandes militaires de ce genre de matériel alors VOUS sont les dumbass.

[xklousiv]

you can speak english, it's way better than using a faulty translator. are you saying that you're in charge of acquiring this type of equipment for the army? lmao. come on buddy, you're way out of line with your zealous comments and your nerdy tone. "Can it be used to kill terrorists" are you fucking serious?

how old are you, I pray God that you're just an angry and scared teen, cos you can't possibly be that naive.

[modeler308]

Ok,here is American english. No,I am not connected with the US Military. I was asking questions that MIGHT be asked if I were. The arrangment of the'legs'on one of the ends is backwards. It moves much too slowly to be practical as a weapons platform. Unlike France which has surrendered its soverenty to pretty much everyone,America isnt that way. We will use ANYTHING to defeat the islamofascists. We havent had any terrorists killing anyone on OUR streets. You sleep well tonight,if you can.

[xklousiv]

wow... that is some incredible pack of bullshit you're delivering here.

[Scorge120]

omg that is way too cool!

[dunkinpimp]

I can just imagine it eating people...

[rogalianth]

Its programming--is it adaptive? Does it "learn" how to move? It seems hard to believe the programmers could get away with a brute-force approach...

[JohanOlsson]

oh god, scary as hell =) One day we gonna regret us that we made them, you know people what I mean aiming at? =) Like in a movies =)

[nlvblaat]

gasoline.

[rlevitin]

What is it powered by? Gasoline, Electricity?

Definitely lots of applications if it can be powered efficiently.

[DJLorenzen]

scary legs. But impressive how it move and can prevent from falling, when pushed.

I'm starting to getting a little afraid though.

[swishabiz]

OMFG if i see this shit walking down my block i would tear it apart. just because it freak me out like crazy lol. it was funny though

[AnEndingAscent]

omfg he kcked the innocent dog

[aguila1967]

Well, it won't be used for sneak-attacks, huh?

[biLoaCi]

OMG! it scares the hell out of me O_O but still amazing!!

[Polynomial9]

Applications have to be many .....what about carring wounded soldiers off a battle field ....

[drmrkd66]

the soldiers would shoot themselves having to listen to that

[Dante72536]

omg METAL GEAR IS HERE

[armouredphoenix]

lol that guy kicked it! haha

[Makrillol]

omg cant you see this thing is awesome?!?

[tigolbitties12345678]

This is perhaps one of the most inspiring examples of legged machines having some practicality. With the chief complaints being that the machine could topple or simply not navigate terrain well even this somewhat shaky gait from a completely AI guided device gives me hopes that in my lifetime I will be able to see crazy gundam/ mechassault vehicles going around. Though hopefully no one will try to make an EVA or we might get that whole creepy sequence of events.

[lewisevans69]

Robodog knows where you live.

[vajyna]

I wonder if it could spin around on all fours like a dog catches it's own tail. lol!

[seterry]

that buzzing gets realy annoying

[TheSnub]

1:00, it almost fell :D

[Bustetrollet]

i can't stop thinking it looks like 1 person is going backwards and other forward...

[SupremeJudge]

How do you turn it off? Remotely or do you let the gas run out?

[l3gosrul3]

lol he keeps kicking it lol

[peterfrelik]

OMG! This is great! What shall we call this donkey? Hernandez? lol Email me the name, babe!

[matrix51204]

impact

impact

impact

impact

impact

impact

impact

:O

[Lemon77UG]

One day, robots will get revenge on humans for those kicks... we'll be enslaved, forced to walk on all fours, and be kicked in the sides by robots all day. "Let's see how good YOU are at keeping balance, bzzzt!"

[yamahabansheerider]

THIS THING CREEPS ME OUT!!

[vajyna]

Looks like at-at from star wars. Fuckin' eerie

[dragonboy34]

Boston Dynamics...how much do I have to pay for a share in your company...seriously, I need to pay for college by selling it later.

[SabaZs]

which side does it poop from? :) next step is making it run, right?

[krakers20]

i wonder what they could get it to run on so it would be quieter?

[Chrutonius]

Hmm, it's not so discreet ;D

[Soviet20]

So creepy and yet so Awsome!

[nikalana]

WOW!! Congrats! That's quite an accomplishment. I must say, though, it's kinda... spooky.

[jrnesbit]

i saw the parody about this first and it made it even more funny to see the actual

[frvfilms]

e-horse

e-camel

e-donky

[endgame99]

This is very exciting. To think robots have become so advanced they can walk like animals now just blows my mind. What will robots be like in the next ten, twenty, or fifty years? Very, very cool.

[naniquena]

Amazing!!!! Congrats... you are great!!

[insme]

QUAD RAPED?

[Hylte85]

quadra ped

[KnifeGun]

LOL

[msanchez007]

now slap a vagina on it and let's fuck it!!!!

[ster1357]

DUDE>>> fuck that thing.. at first it's used to "help victims in an earthquake...." then they'll strap guns to it..and BAM..

[GeekLove100u]

Isn't that the way with all technology?

Apparently shooting someone in the face is also known as helping victims of an earthquake.

Either way it's motherfucking Metal Gear, and look how that turned out.

[alicja49]

creepy!

[cjdean7]

SOunds like it is powered by a 2-stroke IC engine to me.

[IIv3nom]

what exactly does it do? whats its purpose?

[Dezzan]

kill people

[tallaussiebloke]

It's the T-.05 Terminator model.

[luciok]

think it like a beginning...

[cursormansss]

there is an article on the smh website right now about this bigdog

[frostnutmage]

It looks more like 2 people carrying an object between them, facing each-other. Look at the way the knees are bent, but it's still fantastic!

[Deadraised]

Here we have a robot. Now, we need for that robot :

1. Weapons (gun mounted turrets, patriot missiles, nuke warhead and shurikens) 2. Propaganda speakers with the "fly" sound amplified for psychologic destruction 3. Proper décorations (be imaginative). 4. A Facebook profil (eh). What the hell is terminator...

[blackandcold]

when they build it 100 meter big, then its like one of the robots in star wars :D

[rolthox]

They need to make it bigger so i could ride it like a horse.

[jacksoncapper]

Wow, this is amazing. It's also a bit creepy. I think battery power is the last remaining obstacle before it all happens.

[motovx171]

its ok everyone its 3 rules safe. =]

[Zeezy]

After he kicks it and it corrects itself, it reminds me of those things from the game Half Life 2.

This is simply amazing!

[1mod4u]

That's not a dog...It's a spacestation!

[CumSailor69]

wow loud dog

[CumSailor69]

wtf is thtat a dog

[CreTson]

Colonel, it's Metal Gear!

[hatermass]

lmao, i was thinking the same thing

[yelloworse]

there goes the neighborhood

[anonymousnumber11]

It sounds like the sound of death. Imagine thousands of these things a once. Not a pleasant site.

[furbrain12345]

it would be scary if thousands of them started to poor over the horisan... you suddenly wake up to thousands of Big dogs heading your way you try to get out of the city but the roads are clogged, all you can do is go through them to get to the other freeway. you almost make it but there are to many of them and they flip over your car and push it off the road into the ditch and all you can do you wait it out.

*** you wake up and smell disaster...

[csbauer]

it needs wheels so it can move faster and then use legs to climb over what it cant drive on.

[2hyperact]

Has problems crossing water?

[MainOffenderKZ]

omg this is amazing

i didnt know that we already create robots like this one

that impresss me alot

[emsnems]

aww poor puppy

[blu151]

I HATE the sound

[Trigger51506]

No one will hear him coming:)

[fatguynlittlecoat]

those were pussy kicks...I bet I could kick that piece of shit over.

[sebasencr]

Duh, of course you idiot.

That was not the point, the point was showing how the robot can stabilize itself.

It was not about the kick itself, but of course an idiot like you has to play macho.

[mortalkombat1984]

yeah ... no shadow kick lol

[Kal2021]

i stead of kicking it hit it with a car and see what happens

[bigredrod]

It sounds like it's in constant pain

[UCSPanther]

Let me put it this way

Chainsaw and weedwhacker engines sound the same way.

[agentbikini]

i feel the urge to point a gun at it. it's relly cool, but very creepy.

[GGDonner]

i hope sara connor kicks your ass

[javajimmy1090]

Kick that robot one more time, and I'll kick your ass!

[Sigma9870]

looks like it has trouble building up it's own momentum, not that i'm ragging on it; this is the most amazing feat of robotics engineering i've ever seen

[ericpoopooface]

its gayer then your dad

[BigManMamasBoy]

looks like a robot from mgs4

[summerman2]

You could make one you could ride like a horse. Send 20,000 of these to Iraq, instead of kids.

[fatguynlittlecoat]

or just drop a few A-Bombs over Iraq instead.

[ResidentEvilMasta]

mmmmmm Liken those legz!

[dano9181]

Needs a muffler, then it will be scary!

[athenspoor]

lol, that'd be funny.

[Razorfish]

Knowing the government they'll make a requirement that it run off a 500lbs battery that costs $100,000 but only lasts 20 minutes and ruin the whole project.

[muzzyOOO]

it has sexy lady legs

[lam3nt]

It is very scary.

[TechDeck723]

looks scary but still cool

[masteropie001]

Wow, that is much more impressive then Honda's robot. I bet it did not cost as much hehe. Asia has been schooled yet again.

Best of luck on future projects!

[MrMajugi]

it looks like to guys in some sort of device hehe.

the legs looks so funny

[mrfizy]

it reminds me of the robots in the new metal gear solid

[nero20066]

00:30 ,the way it balances after being kicked is really scary!!! Want one !!!

[amgt333]

it would be fudging scary if that thing was chasing me or someone, especialy the way it looks and sounds

[Remington722]

This thing would be much cooler if it ran silently

[Ghostx99]

wtf is that suppose to be

[ResidentEvil91]

First i tough there was 2 ppl inside one box and walking funny :D

[nurion]

Looks like something from Blacksite Area 51. If I saw one of those walkin down the street i'd be scared as hell! It walks so wierdly...

[Maxxum7D]

It really moves like an animal, and it react very quickly. It balances very well too, even there is some forces that try to make it fall. But it just look and sound scary to me. Will it bite?

[wellsy20]

I wonder if you could program it to sound like the hunters from HL2: ep2?

[cloneddragon]

that's is creepy beyond belief... and the noise it makes only adds to the creepy-nes

[SEThatered]

Creepy

[Svaraijt]

The sound of the engine + the look of this robot-dog givec me the creeps)

[Fazulka46]

Thats crazy! Does it listen to voice commands? Sit robopup sit! Good boy.

[average220]

Wow that bastard kicked it like if it were a retarded cow moooo!

[dkziggy]

Make a bunch of these mounted with guns and send them into war. If I was the enemy I'd be scared sh*******.
