DARPA DEVOLOPING ROBOTIC CHEETAH THAT PREYS ON THE ENEMY, AND ATLAS "TERMINATOR"

[AddisonHock]

still MILES behind Japan :p

[viciousattackvideo]

Kyle Reese: Listen, and understand. That terminator is out there. It can't be bargained with. It can't be reasoned with. It doesn't feel pity, or remorse, or fear. And it absolutely will not stop, ever, until you are dead.

[TimTimDotGov]

If a robot can do your job. There is no use for any of us... bad idea man...

[Membrane556]

Scale it up and make five of them that combine into one big robot.

[YoungAries1ca]

WE'RE FUCKED

[BeakyRed]

tell me when they make a mecha godzilla :D

[vikaskarade]

@BeakyRed Dont give such ideas :(

They will do it :(

[sassui90]

Metal Gear anyone? o.o

[hispanicuscorpus]

Holly shit, it look like the robot from Galactica,

[AaaaghJOE]

ATLAS.... ATLAS.... THERE MAKING PORTAL 2!!

[Supergear100]

wheres liberty prime??

[LifeDeathRomance]

stuff of mystery novels? more like it's straight outta Bladerunner.

[doceigen]

Because of the emotionalism which clouds rational behaviors it is hard to understand the value of a kill ethic using high tech weapons, but... we are a moral people, so we spend TRILLIONS developing these devices to surgically kill more the bad than the innocent. We don't need any of this, we can simply rush ahead with neutron enhanced nukes and kill EVERYONE under its cone! But... we are a moral people, and as humans go, more naive than most.

[YFLOInternational]

You know if this is what our government is showing on the unclassified side of things ... 3701 Fairfax Dr. in Arlington, VA ... DARPA has something that is 10-20 years more advanced ... probably even more advanced than the movie-version ... and you know that shit is real as fuck ...

[xPosskx]

Replacing life and blood with oil and machinery. I just..don't see why we need even more efficient ways to kill.

[doceigen]

@xPosskx  The most 'efficient' ways to kill, are not even close to precise, and without precision, a lot more innocent lives would be terminated. Americans spend trillions TRYING not to kill efficiently, instead trying to be just... who else does that?

[MrDavidFix]

I was in a briefing where it was proposed to buy the robot mule to support operations in the middle east before OIF/OEF. I heard how much it cost . . . and I had to ask two questions.

"Where do you plug it in to recharge it in the middle of nowhere? . . and

how many real mules can you buy for that amount of money?" . . .

Needless to say, the Army bought real mules for troop support instead.

[AZURA888]

I don't know but the americans projects in robotics are always about war, defense, destruction, spy, killing, detection and ranging. It contributes greatly to the bad idea the people has in America about robots, every american has printed the image of Arnold saying hasta la vista baby with its pretty red shimmering camera eye. Please relax a little.

[AgrivatedKillah]

@AZURA888 War is the greatest driver of technological advances. It may be sad, that's just the way it is.

[mudkipping]

ITS NOT ALL BAD we can use this same technology to create robots we can take into the bedroom. HUMAN MALE INSERT MEMBER BUZZ CLICK WHIRRR

[TheAngryPhilosopher8]

ATLAS is scary as hell. Then again, this is a step up from the weird Japanese impulse to make all their robots look like anime characters.

[nightowl8936]

@TheAngryPhilosopher8

They should add a scary looking skull to make ATLAS psychologically scary to use in future wars against islamic enemies ... this is exactly the kind of weapon needed to fight the high birth rate of islamic societies ... something that can deal out a high death rate.

[TroubadourPariahTV]

I love robotics technology but this video frightened me..

[powerone1]

If they name the cheetah robot Ravage will they have to pay royalties to the Transformer trade mark? :-D

[Kagome7]

@powerone1 The gov is above the law

[scrubjay93]

Creepy. So...while the robots fight each other in some godforsaken trashed environment somewhere, can we get down to the business of waging WORLD PEACE?

[gavloft]

These will help western civilization to kill all of the shepherds in afghanistan and steal their 3 trillion dollars of resources and and control the middle east

[Chobits351]

Military Guys- HEY BRO U SEE THE TERMINATOR ?

Richy Douche- YEA....

Military Guys- LETS MAKE IT HAPPEN !

Richy Douche- K.

[AgrivatedKillah]

@Chobits351 Most of these scientist only go to the military for funding.

They build something for the military and then the military funds something they want to do.

[welovetrent]

Lets just all hope that terrorists will be friendly and sit down for tea with us to discuss our differences peacefully. We live in a violent world. We must be prepared to protect ourselves and our way of life to those who seek to destroy it.

[powerone1]

Usually when hear of a Terminator reference I roll my eyes, but in this case it makes more sense. "Come with me if you want to live". :-D

[McMeevin]

Zoids! derda der da der da der da Zoids!

[bweazel]

Sweet. Bring on the EMP weapons ;)

[Risenangelicaegis]

Great First Skynet and Terminators and now its ……………Zoids !  :-)

[jkyet]

Metal Gear Solid

[djlegacy123456789]

this is the power of the u.s milatary technology congrats derpa help create tons of inventions that we use today go derpa!

[LeadxSled]

guys dont worry, i designed ATLAS to only make cupcakes and muffins

[xxemir89xx]

Metal Gear Solid...

[PoliticalHell]

I wonder if there will still be wars when only robots will be fighting it. Will there still be a point? Lol, it will be like playing chess... except with really, really expensive pieces (and a lot of them).

[marchrabbit85]

Robotic Cheetah for hunting Robotic Bunnies lol

[trashfox89]

So... when do we start building a time machine to prevent the rise of the machines?

[GMSGaryIN]

I don't know if anybody on this comment board is aware of, but this is that robot called Ravage off of Transformers!

[litematter]

Its sucks everything amazing thats made is used to kill or make war on people. >.< Its our own tax dollars also is what really pisses me off. Where are the robots that help us do shit, no where to be seen, they are made for the brainwashed military and the governments corrupt agendas. This is why were in so much debt making robot cheetahs and donkeys for fucks sake, that are used for nothing but war.

[AgrivatedKillah]

@litematter It sucks, but that's pretty much how everything comes into power.

It's a kind of good, and bad thing.

Things like planes, were made in times of war, jets, boats, etc.

[MrDarkTemplar]

good that someone is working on EMP rifle wich will wreck this garbage in one shot and won't even be classified as weapon cuz it wont poses a threat to human life

[goldencricket]

@MrDarkTemplar EMP shielding isn't even hard. If they start using EMPs against robots, they'll coat them in a quarter inch thick casing and everything will be fine.

[ZuDuka1]

@goldencricket then we will hear the motors as they come! that kind of weight is only gonna slow them down, 1/4" steel weighs + ~ - 10lbs per foot.

[AgrivatedKillah]

@MrDarkTemplar Garbage?

How the hell can you call it garbage when its state of the art.

[MrDarkTemplar]

@AgrivatedKillah don't get me wrong, i know its advanced tech and Im full of respect for constructors. As garbage i reffered to its usefullness in military operations especially as "future soldiers", they are to clumsy, to expensive and too easy to put out of action to be of good use in military operations in near future.

[AgrivatedKillah]

@MrDarkTemplar How do you even know they're too clumsy and expensive?

They haven't even finished them yet.

My god you are a technophobe.

[MartinFalch]

Starcraft II anyone?

[tpulling83]

Get an EMP weapon and take out the chip.

[rosmer00]

future looks darker and darker every time i look..

[Serge1965]

How about future of peace and no stinkin, robots, i mean man will go to pets and robots and wars before going to God or to his fellow man, thank You Lord Jesus that You are coming soon to put an end to human stupidity

[Psy0psAgent]

Future of War. Is there any other option? Do they make any plans for any other type of future?

[MsDaniella71]

@Psy0psAgent No, I don't believe they do plan for happier events. War is a money maker for the rich/powerful , the people in charge ie: USA, Britian, China, Russia and even Saudi Arabia- the gov'ts that have rich elite helping decide basically everything for us. We literally are pawns in a big chess match...war is nothing to them, thier children aren't being sent to die.

[mobius1aic]

@Psy0psAgent Get your EMP grenades ready.

[LivingDead221]

hellish future

[oldwarhorse1865]

Maybe they want to use it on all the userpers and crooks in DC!

[natritious1]

we most certainly have a cyberpunk future in store for us. Augmented reality is next
