  • Your Video Is Very Useful Sharing The Foster-Miller TALON robot is a small, tracked military robot designed for missions ranging from reconnaissance to combat.

  • Uh oh...

  • if i hear that thing come towards me , i just shoot a few times , then laugh because i made over 10.000$ of damage. , or i sneak up behind it , pick it up , and steal the technology.

  • prepare for MW3 armchair generals -_-

  • Dear Santa...

  • Hah, this great gadget will be in BF3 >:D

  • Hay Honda can your asimo do that!

  • Im doing a research paper on robotics in the military.. interesting stuff.

  • just one question: why is it that just now these robots are rolling out?

    i mean, its pretty much just a gun strapped to a remote controlled car. we had all the technology as far back as 30 years ago.

    and range of "half a mile?" what happens after that?

  • @DExAvalon

    We certainly didn't have laptops small enough or powerful enough to be feasible in controlling this robot. We may have been able to build it sooner but it takes need and want to build it.

  • Lend the Japanese these things now! At least they'd be able to inspect the damaged reactors with it's camera without having the workers in constant danger.

  • This is not a robot.

  • the future scares me. guess we better load up on chaff and emp.

  • Problem is it's not really autonomous. Its remotely controlled. Let them be fully autonomous in a swarm and then you got something more viable.

  • @vortexZXR And then imagine some crazy hackers.

  • thubs up this comment if you believe that this should replace the rcxd in modern warfare 3

  • Put that gun on top of the "crusher" so it can hold days worth of ammo :D

  • The Foster-Miller TALON robot video

  • nice robot...but needs some modifications

  • the person who controls the robot, what is his job title called?

  • What if it's flipped over?

  • Looks like a nice weapons delivery platform...for enemy! Just throw a big rock at it from the side where the cameras can't see.

  • @Nomoreidsleft They're capable of firing long range.

  • any of you know if heartbeat sensors are real

  • SKYNET ....on line ?

  • will be cool when these things patrol the streets... then one day turn on us...

  • nice but it needs a stablised siting camera that doesn't bounce around when the weapon fires!

  • There is a very interesting article on the independent by Johann Hari about robot warfare and the problems this may cause. The article is called "The age of the killer robot is no longer a sci-fi fantasy"

  • hey, soon enough we can fight wars without putting our soldiers in danger. Then we can fight whatever wars we want without actually having to justify them, or lie about the reasons for going to war, since American lives won't be in danger. This will make war so easy we'll finally be able to go to war for more stupid reasons.

  • I hope with all that I am that you are not correct...

  • If someone approaches from the side or just flank it with gun fire, it would put it out of commission. The thing can only pick one target at a time and that's what is in front of it. It's not like it's gun can move a complete 360. The robot has to adjust it's whole body if there are more targets to the left and right of it, or behind it.

  • O ya fuck u esinjusto we no that !!!

  • LOL

  • -hey, look theres Wall-E behind that bush

    -shit its shooting at us!

  • I need one of these.

  • what the...?? how many idiots are here??? I am informatic programmer, this machines only does whatever you told them, they CAN'T do anything without your order, look: can your cell phone call your mother cuz he want?? thats the same man

  • Just take it out with a random nade launcher even a m203 will do.

    Otherwise you can take cover and throw a frag grenade at it or place a claymore at the corner of your cover and sneak away.

    If your a civilian... In urban situations stay inside, use corners or a suprise to your advantage to overpower it.

    When armed hit the camera's,throw molotov's make explosives or pipe-bombs.

    In the future it'll be only destroyed with high-explosives or rocketlaunchers, say 6 years from now.

  • I dunno Space0wl. I mean just look at it. Even a decent amount of gun fire looks like it could disable the thing.

  • Yes but it has superiour targeting systems and a high caliber machine gun go ahead if you want to be a piece of swiss cheese but i rather take some cover behind thick concrete walls without exposing myself to raining bullets.

  • ARMY STRONG MOTHA FUCKAS!!

  • @xBeardedxDragonx1234 your a fucktard army is a bunch of cowards thats why they make these robots. your training is a joke and now you guys hardly fight. Marines are better than any faggot army bot

  • @xBeardedxDragonx1234 fag army sucks and are cowards which is why they need robots to do their fighting...soldiers are too scared cuz their training is shit

  • @EliteMortal06 What's ur problem?

  • @EliteMortal06 y dont u go fight in a war then! Oh I know why you'd get killed!

  • Pretty soon warfare will be obsolete and it will be a game of Nation vs. nation robotics... (sigh) so odds are we will not have robot overlords like i hoped.

  • I wouldn't think it that way.

    Think Terminators vs. Human Resistance.

    It'd be an asymmetric war, Robots vs. smart humans.

    EMP bombs would fry up the robot's electronics and disabling them.

  • Linear shaped charge land mine. Problem solved.

  • it's more of an rc tank: No robot if it's radiocontrolled.

  • Robots and A.I ( artificial intelligence ) are two separate things almost every robot that was built today is based on a radio controlled counterpart. So no radio controlled does not mean no robot it means stupid robot ( it can't think for itself ).

  • solo hace falta hacerlo a escala de 1.70 cmy le pones 2 machin-gun a cada lado y es un t1 al final sera como dicen un campo de batalla rollo terminator y lo que pasara sera que el primero que lo haga esperemosque no le den aires de grandeza para hacerse con el mundo parece una locura o una estupidez lo que digo pero es lo que creo pues a veces las peliculas se pueden pasar a la realidad

  • that's cool but. what about Isaac Asimov's first law of robotics?

    "A robot may not injure a human being or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm."

    i know it's sci fi, but isn't it a good rule of thumb?

    it seems like we are rushing ahead again with a weapon that we may not be able to control. we've lucked out so far with nukes. can we at least slow down with the making of what will evolve into an intelligent being with a gun and no conscience?

  • How will it evolve? Evolving implies giving birth. Robot tanks don't have genitals.

  • Impressive technology. Robots like TALON will greatly reduce human casualties in warfare.

  • Impressive is an overstatement

    It is barely adequate with multiple weaknesses

  • ummm... as long as the other side doesn't have humans. or do you mean that any human outside of the usa isn't really human?

  • soon there'll be battlefields like XBOX 360. XD

  • That's great but... the turret can't rotate or move up and down? Well, if I ever wanted a vehicle for shooting the enemies ankles after 2 minutes manual adjustment...

  • My cousin has a job in Foster-Miller and he helped design this. I want that job lol.

  • kick ass robot

  • HEY but that robot those have feelings!

    so dont make fun of its weight!

  • "Now LISTEN! And understand. That Talon is out there! It can't be bargained with, it can't reasoned with, it doesn't feel pity, or remorse, or fear. And it absolutely will not stop, EVER! Until you are dead."

  • Just a minute - this thing is remote-controled... there is a soldier behind it! Wait another 20 years until the AI is ready and then start again.

  • I know, but i was qouting Kyle Reese from "The Terminator". Guten tag! :-)

  • Ah - ok ok ;)

  • 20? check X-47, Crusher, etc.

    They are fully autonomous, meaning you just need to give it an order, and it will figure the rest out.

  • o so nice robot warr!!!

  • robot wars!!!

  • You really mean that?

    It *would* kick hell ass if every war was waged with these.

  • HOT DAMM! HELL YEA! & YEE HAW!

    Those Are Some KickAss Vehicles!

    Good Luck With Those!

    GOD BLESS, ALL ALLIED FORCES!
