If there is a man inside or it is being controlled remotely then it isn't a true robot, however this video is from 2006 (updated in 08) and it is now 2011 and it is conceivable that if someone had been doing research and engineering non-stop since then we could indeed have a true "robot" version of this dog. The question is, is the research happening or are all these projects spending a lot of time on dusty shelves?
It is a normal human in a dog quadsuit with his legs bent so that they actually walk with their knees. Take a look at this one too: /watch?v=-P0vLHoVZAk
It's a brilliant quad-suit! If you look closely you'll understand that The man's legs are tightly folded. Practically the dog's hind paws are the man's knees. And the tail and probably the head, could be animatronic.
It a person in a Fur suit with moving Tail and Ear and there Back feet are bent like your setting on your nees that is why the Dog was setting a lot I've seen this Type of Fur costumes before and that is a person in a Fursuit they are Very Good at not Talking in there Costume and I shore they were hot in that fur a lot. and you can see there real neck in part of the video. from the look of the way they are move its a female in the costume and there not a mini person just a slim girl in costume.
@AZURA888 the tail is actually being moved by the person's feet (as the legs and arms are bent to achieve a more realistic appearance for a dog) - so you're close, but not close enough
The only animatronics in this are the tail, I can tell by looking that their is a human inside and that this is a quadsuit. Quadsuit use several different methods to walk on all fours including arm stilts or leg binding.
@mascotmatt Didn't mean anything negative,the movement is very smooth and life like. thought it might be operated by a person inside,but now I think I'll admit my wrong guess.
Considering they are calling it an "animatronic" dog, I'm guessing it is a robot, of sorts. It is being controlled remotely by people standing off to the side. This way it is all technology, but the mind is human.
if people actally belive this is a man in a dog suit, then the makers of this animatronic did a very well job, also the dog is to jittery to be a human in a dog suit, walking animatronics like this have limitations due to balance issuses.thats why the rear legs are stiff. ever seen one of those backflip toy dogs. they have stiff rear legs like that to. trust me animatronics are way better today than they used to be. they beat most cpu effects for movies if it wasn't for the cost
People. This is really, really, a robotic dog. It's been verified. Quit it with all the "person in a suit" comments. All the amateur, ten-second visual commentary you can provide isn't going to won't change the fact that it's already been bloody proven.
@Lurnick quit yelling at me!!! you might be right but i'd have to check it out myself to believe it. sorry, but i'm not that easily convinced. skeptics rule
@latex123456 lol true i personally dont believe servos are that good yet, the motion is questionable plus something would brake moving like that unless theres a new type of servo that works just like a human muscle but im yet to see it heh plus why such realism in the motion yet poor unrealistic motion in facial and appearance dosnt make sence could of at least make it blink so yeah students
Note the fact that the back legs don't bend, the hindquarters are very large, and the back "feet" are slightly bulged... personally, I'd say that it's a person (it is a person, a normal one) and that they are bending their back legs to fit in the costume. This also explains the tail - the feet are right there, so perhaps there's a string assembly or something to move the tail. It's a very well made suit, to be sure.
@SCRuner5h its real....its a robot. like i said ..... its a prototype created by someone. will most likly never be sold in stores. and if it was; no one would be able to afford it. it would be thousands of dollars. no person would be able to be tht short and comfterble on the ground on hands a knees. unless they can bend there knees legs perfectly flat against the back of there leg and still be able to do all that. you try it. wht ur saying sounds so primative. really? a costume at a DC car show
@OLDSCHOOLHHSEX Except on Battlestar Galactica, it was a monkey in the costume, not a midget. This suit is far too big for a midget. You can see the outline of the performers arm in the costume as he/she bends it just before rolling over. Definitely a person inside. The legs are either bent & tied, so that the knees are the back feet or the performer has no lower legs. I tend to believe the former, as I also believe they are using their feet to wag the tail.
its a dog suit with a dwarf human inside they have arm stilts so they can walk naturally on all fours.... Notice the person go from a sitting position to standing without bending at the knees, thats a dwarf thing (the tail electric maybe?)
I'm having trouble deciding if that's a guy in a suit or really a robot... if it is a robot, it's probably one of the most fluid and best robots i've ever seen.
thats impossible for it to be animatronic! We are not that far in knowledge of robots to create a robot to move and fuction that fast and exactly like a dog! That is a man in a suit for sure! if you think its a robot your just DUMB!
I'm not buying it. This thing is way to fluid in movement! My guess is it's a suit with some robotic/radio controlled parts and an amputee (below the knees) in it.
Its a robot, cause otherwise why would they be advertising it?? it is obviously a robot, and a good one to. i'd be scared incase it turned evil, or something :D
If that is a robot I would LOVE to see what is under the fur! Impressive how fluid the movement is and how fast the reaction time is. I wonder if it is RC?
Actually, it is a robot but it was roughly around 2million. All the bugs were worked out of it so it moves so swiftly but what it did her is all it can do. Look stuff up before posting please.
@littlecrash8 unbelivable how people are saying its a midget in a suit lmfao! wtf? its most likly worth as much as a car or more! 2mill would not be surprising either. dogs will soon be obselete. why would there be a person in a costume at an auto and robotic convention? really? ur the only one tht makes sense
