BigDog Robot Army

[kevman77]

VTEC at its finest.

[TheCuriouskittycat]

scary omg

[JackPriceyPrice]

Can it stand still without having to move it's legs up and down?

[MrSanjeezZ]

feel weird when he kicks it lmao? 

[vjdj91]

that robot is f'cking freaky! :''''O it doesn't fall over and it's just weird! '''._.'''

[vjdj91]

that thing f'ckin freaks me out :''''C i do not know why, that fact that it can't fall over perhaps... '''._. '''

[SIG1776]

haha this robot is cute XD

[lordkoos]

Compare the ungainly awkward movements of this robot to this: youtube.com/watch?v=HSKyHmjyrk­A&feature=player_embedded

[sevenalay]

man on 0:34 is like: Death to all robots!

[ajm017]

it looks like a giant four legged mosquito

[lorenzvc]

if you think about it , I would feel bad if i kicked it too much and make it go off balance , it reacts so natural , like a living creature , though it has no feelings , i'd be scared for it to give me a kick back

[dimerio123]

@lorenzvc it won't kick you back, it will shoot you.

[exactomacto]

No likey mud.

[lisaelledge]

i agree.........to get rid of the F@@$in noise it will be a great multi-million dollar weapon............close to one.....

[743729sci]

That's weird looking. It walks like it has a stick in it's sphincter.

[theotrian]

STOP ROBOTS ABUSE!

"The greatness of a nation and its moral progress can be judged by the way its robots are treated." -Mahatma Gandhi

[hydralisk3313]

@theotrian robots don't feel idiot. They're scrap metal with wires.

[DoranKingold]

GIANT ENEMY CRAB 

[yksniset]

Freaky thing...

[3rdsnowleopard]

Modern day robotics are at the level of a retarded dog. By my estimate, we're about 100 years off from having full on Mecha warfare.

[smurftaco69]

Ro- Bot- Dog, turn em off mutha fucka said turn em off

[Soniczeldaking]

Its a Hunter from Half- Life 2

[themousemaster]

if it had a face it would be less scary

[themousemaster]

OMG that thing is sooooo creepy

[timelordcreation]

just give it a cow costume and they won't suspect a thnig

[MrEisinn]

Half-Life.... its just the beginning

[cksilverado1]

The enemy will never hear you coming!

[assassin34563]

ROFL XD

[skullgymequipment]

Its all fun and games till they put a freakin saw on it ...

[nowheelspin]

@skullgymequipment or a feakin lazer beam or the robot tries to hump the freakin lazer beam !!!

[Celticninja011]

@skullgymequipment or a bomb.

[DaftPACman]

what happens if it steps on a mine?

then it turns into a robotic bird lol

[EfersRcool]

oh yeah thats just great cause you can barely hear it if you trying to sneak through the enemy

[hoopbla58]

that scares me. why dont the put a head on it? then it will be less scary.........mabey......

[Cozzi0]

why dont they protect it;'s machinery betetr you could shoot a few rounds at it and it would be down.

[Fanible]

It's just a prototype...

[MrEisinn]

@Cozzi0 man if they would ever shoot... they would be like WTF while it passes by xD

[assassin34563]

cinda anoyying

[ArandurKing909]

C IS FOR PUSSIES!

[assassin34563]

AWSOME!

[grammarnazixx]

shit like that is what futuristic robot domination movies are made of.

imagine hundreds of those things surrounding you, buzzing at you, approaching. and you can't even kick them away! noooooo

[venom1dark]

OH MY GOD ITS MGS4 GEKKO IN A DOG FORM...I bet they'll make nano machines next ohh scary

[sookie444]

oh my god its constantly passing gas

[cacapookie1977]

that one is old..now it carrys 350lbs payload......

and is more sterdy when they kick it!

[pleorocks2000]

ugly but wonderfull

[BobbyDikk]

haha great vid

it acts like bumbee;)

[Beatboxbob]

What about tripping it up? Or going up a hill?

You didn't want to deomonstrate those, eh?

[animalnt]

looks like 2 guys hahaha

[Ficas12]

creepy

[oliwer95]

uggly as hell!

[larn555]

yes it is creepy and has scared me a bit

[onespeedgreg]

im freaked by it too... effin unreal

[beeninsane]

That thing is gonna give me nightmares. God help me if it still does that lanky, gangly, creepy 'walk' after you kick it..

[dizzy87ninja]

WTH??

ARMY MECHS!!

[mizzlenizzle]

Why am I the only freaked out at this thing?

[Energi2DmaxX]

Noisy Robo Donkey lol

[cruzzinnye]

Theres no guys in there u retards, the legs are really skinny

[ECiriachi]

This thing will rule the battlefields of the future...

Bottom line: it sucks enough to be a jihadist today, it will be even more in 5 years!

[ssshakurrr]

you can see the two guys upper bodies crouched inside and that noise is a kazoo

[justicetrooper]

odd, you'd think from the way that moved it had electric motors, but I guess kazoo propulsion is the way of the future.

[PlagueMarine9]

I want to blow this thing to pieces it should not be here on this planet.

[jackbear23]

I think it will blow you [and maybe me] to pieces first...

[Fagleboo]

It hasn't really got the stealth part down though!

[HunterUniden]

I.. must.. kill metal gear...

[Envee211]

This thing is fuckin' creepy as hell.

[exactspace]

LOL

[Poofr]

If I'm unmistaken, it couldn't stand properly as this type of robot needs to constantly moving its legs to keep the balance.

[YertleDaTurtle]

Might as well mount guns on that scary fucking thing.

[lunaroutcast]

Holy ****! Metal Gear! XD

[alphashade88]

It reminds me of Mini-Striders From Half Life 2 Ep 2

[phampia]

ahhohh.. the beginning of Metal GEAR!..

[KnivesNinja]

Lmao its the Shagohod!

[goblinboat]

i think he was refering to the MGS4 ones

[aznperv123]

take one...tie a bomb to it.. put it in Osama Bin Ladens house.... say it is a RC toy... and blow that muther fker UP !!!

[cyxycyc]

nice project. awesome balance!

[DH2020]

yes kick the robot, they will remember that in the future when they will take over.

[KingRwC]

That shit is stripy though chasing you in your dreams creepy.

[fedroger]

Wonderful sound! Our military is hard at work.

[Gringarr]

Kinda useless tho, all that shit, and you could do the same thing with a remote control with big ass wheels

[medoh1]

great ! but please dont mount a gun on it again.

[Fintoso]

Omg .. My "little HOrseee"""!!!

[MountainDeW06]

Materials and power sources will get better and cheaper. With continued innovation, things like this may one day outperform humans in many tasks. Question: Do you think you could hold your balance if you were kicked like that?

[feonvux]

the point is one day they will be able to kick you back!

[Keithrichards1]

All those wires and chips to do simple tasks like walking and keeping balance, a thing that is second nature to humans, just shows how far ahead we are. Robots cant beat humans, simple fact.

[dananddanfilms]

It prances in a strangely camp way. Who'd've thought that the cutting edge of modern animatronics would mince about like it does.

And yet I'm duly blown away... have to keep reminding myself that it's a robot.

[KairuHakubi]

This is very impressive.. the fact that it can balance, climb, and adapt to being unbalanced is the most important part.

[drVitall]

Awesome bot - i like it even better then Asimo;)

[mstax]

Scientist #1: "What the hell are we gonna do with this thing? NASA rejected it out of hand!"

Scientist #2: "I know... let's put it up on YouTube... I'll bet thousands will watch it there!!"

Scientist #1: Yeah... only cost a billion and a half to develop and make - I guess a YouTube vid is better than just scrapping it."

[CapnE635]

yer and whats your point?

[smashingparadox]

hahahahahahahahahahaaa

the way it walks is so hilarious to me.

also. this kind of scares me to think proto-types like this are just the early years before robots become even more advance and mass produced, etc etc. And in the future, videos like this will be "historical records" of robotics's humble beginnings

[straker1999]

Geezzzz ... this one really blew my mind (Asimo ... watch-out). Really brilliant stuff guys :o)

[triad36]

ahahah looks like 2 dudes walking around facing each other while carrying sumthing on their backs ahah

[luis2k5]

noisy bastard

[Chongyiaher]

Next thing you know the dam thing is gonna want its own rights.

[steelmilkjug]

Next thing you know, Californians will be pushing for them.

[MrRobot]

it's odd the legs look like an animals with the black covering and the body looks completely mechanical.

[grimnoob]

lemme ride !

[Willdarts]

it looks like two drunk guys running while trying to carry a table between them.

[Nakagomer]

lol... you're right

[PSchneeman]

Now the Army will need 10,000 copies.

[fgna87]

WOW! but work in the custome, it looks like a silent hill creature, just get a dog head...

[WannaBwalker]

fukin hell ... what a pussy kick.. he shuda booted taht mufuka .. den c if itll lose its balance ... lol

[ZeriqViz]

shit, this will give me nightmares!

[csaoxcs]

aaah! the way it moves...*hides*

[assybutt]

I so wanna ride that :)

[lissie568]

assybutt, you male or female?

[cmpresents]

Awsome, we are almost there.

[emjaiz]

thats the most advanced physics iv'e ever seen in a robot, graviscan stop trying to sound like you know this shit dumbass, and as for people saying it's creepy what the fuck is it gonna do? leg you to death?

[TeddyShrooms]

it's called uncanny valley einstein.

look it up.

[stubbsywins]

that really freaks me out

[Novacore]

Reminds me of a disturbing Silent Hill 2 monster...

[paxson001]

unsettling... reminds me of the firehouse "dog" from Farenheit 451.

[GA101]

lol i can just imagine it walking into a bush and getting stuck. or the enermy coming up and raiding it as it walks past :P

*its so stelthy too*

[coppaa]

omg soo fucking creepy. creepy creepy creepy. thats so much scarier than anything ive seen in movies. imagine when they strap guns to that thing and put armor plates on it. like if you saw a bunch of these thing commig at you with gunz.uuuuuuhhh.... scary. i dont know whats creepier the noise it makes now or if it was quiet.

[galdimeron]

Excelente!!!

[bert872]

The movement is like something out of a cyborg horror movie

[VampiricNinja]

just imagine. Iraqi streets, guns fire everywhere. A single soldier is giving covering fire... but then runs out of ammo.

"I need ammo, quick!"

BUZZA BUZZA BUZZA BUZZA

The BigDog walks up ti him carrying plenty of ammo... then the enemy falls over laughing.

I hope thats a prototype, but still amazing though.

[gravisan]

hmm ... does it have gas powered actuators? and i am guessing the buzzing noise is a 1 stroke compressor or some sort?

[deadfreddy]

I think its trying to communicate with us BuZZZ Buzzz...ZZZ

[silentghost2006]

Is it just me or does that look extremely un-natural. Just the way the legs move creeps me out. *shivers* Cool though

[FancyUnicorn]

It looks extremely too natural. with un-natural you know it's a robot. This. THIS! looks like two torso-less pairs of legs walking on their own! but yes *shivers*/coolness
