Researchers working with the Japanese Ministry of Self-Defense have created what they claim is the worlds first completely spherical flying robot. The robot, which has roughly the same dimensions as a soccer ball, is able to travel at speeds of up to 40 miles per hour, or hover in the general area of a stable spot such as a hallway.

If the robot is tumbled to the ground, or swatted by someone with wants to toy with it, the bot will roll to absorb the impact and prevent as much damage as possible. This same trick works on other surfaces, should the robot bounce into walls, fixtures on the walls or anyone who happens to be in the room. Though, at this stage the robot cannot apologize for this breach of etiquette, which in Japan is an important detail.

    "then we got those who just sit at home all day after graduating HS and do nothing productive for society other than leeching from their parents."

    Oh right. Americans. I tend to forget.

    I'm no weeaboo, I'm just fed up with Americans and their general stupidity.

  • @truth2350

    In other words it has nothing to do with the video. You just saw the keywords "ministry of self defense" and posted a paranoid left wing rant, without any regards to what the video is about.

  • @BTIsaac I told you exactly what it has to do with it. WTH are you talking about?
