You realize that when something is prototype it is not fully developed and is not entirely safe.

Are 3 or 4 wheels too expensives ? What's the point having an injured victim swinging 4ft in mid-air ?

@xyanide1986

It's not the weight that makes the balance feedback's difficult : it's the pendulum length (the longer, the slower to oscillate, and vice-versa). This demo only proves one thing : powerful servomotors can do wonders.

Try to lower the GC by, say...a feet ? Then I'll be impressed.

@asmotaku You tend to want to raise or lower people to put them up somewhere, for a good demonstration of the balance system it looks impressive to have a lot of weight on top.

drop the crappy design and keep the arms and just turn it into a remote controlled stretcher on wheels that can pick up the person and still keep low to the ground or raise up based on terrain

I think this is military developement. So, I wanna know what happen if I shoot on it...

[Schinanigans]

A remote controlled Segway with arms. Not too difficult to make. Probably upgraded motors to support a limp body. But not too much terrain in battle is smooth enough where that thing isnt gonna get stuck and possibly drop a soldier. It would be a huge task just for that thing to find smooth enough ground not just be wandering all over the battlefield. Sounds good in theory but maybe some kind of track type wheels would be more effecient for terrain and better for balance and heavy loads.

What happened to training our soldiers to be strong enough to carry people?

[buddyclubs]

man! imagine this thing is fully developed and used for war, it would be creepy seeing these thing coming back with sleepy bodies.

@sugoi49 yeah!! cus having that thing roaming around in the battlefield or any rescue operation at all seems really safe. even though its a prototype it seems really retarded and i cant see anything better with this thing than using a 4 wheeled stable rescue robot that could go in any terrain. where would you even use a 2 wheeled rescue robot? i say, go with the ripsaw they made for rescue options! (Search for ripsaw ms1 or ms2 to see what i mean)

111hamish111, your logic is horrifying.
