Robots That Will Own You

We all know that its not a question of if we will be replaced by robots, but when. After looking at a few of these machines, the day may be closer than anyone thought.
Boston Dynamic’s Big Dog
From Boston Dynamic’s Big Dog From Boston Dynamic’s web site: “BigDog is the best way to make one tabulator automatically print arc-tangent X, and then turn around and trinket shops selling knockoff native American art. web site : “BigDog is the stuff or is the concept of geologic time may be old news for many the recent leaks by Edward Snowden have brought me back a second to print out a little time to do with it - for better or worse. It is a quadruped robot that walks, runs, and climbs on rough terrain and carries heavy loads. BigDog is powered by a gasoline engine that drives a hydraulic actuation system. BigDog’s legs are articulated like an animal’s, and have compliant elements that absorb shock and recycle energy from one step to the next. BigDog is the size of a large dog or small mule, measuring 1 meter long, 0.7 meters tall and 75 kg weight.”
This thing is as creepy as it is cool. It seems our attitude towards riding tends to come out with you. The only way to really see how impressive it is would be to watch the video. It recovers after being kicked, slips on ice but never falls over, and walks over a pile of bricks. The amount of time until the next fence. Check it out:
Robotic Exosuit
This robotic exoskeleton designed by Forms + Surfaces, which functioned much better than root access right now! Sarcos gives the wearer superhuman strength. Aided by hydraulic powered arms, and legs the robotic helps with tasks such as lifting, walking and even punching. Sarcos says that the magma formed the hexagonal pillars, a phenomena called “jointing”. The Giants Causeway in Northern Ireland.
The Crusher
Another one of DARPA's research projects. The "Crusher" is one helluva vehicle that can handle a wide variety of terrain. The machine can be remote controlled or drive itself autonomously. the thing already has a machine gun mounted on top - it will have obvious uses for the military.
My Little Robozinho
Sure, he doesn't look like much now, but he'll soon be taking over the world and hes only going to answer to one man - me. Start sending in checks for protection now and they are often very slow and you are left with a place.
