Title: new Petman video (most amazing biped I've seen to date)
Post by: Admin on November 01, 2011, 09:10:09 AM
It's rare that I see a robot that impresses me these days . . . I will have to say that this biped built for the US Army is now at the top of my list.  :D

Watching it's motions, it's clear that BostonDynamics is using the same balancing techniques as with their BigDog robot. This fluidic real-time gait balance controller is how I'd go about building a biped.

Now that the terminator is nearly complete, I guess us humans need to be worried about staying alive . . .

ps - by 'humans', I mean those who don't make robots . . .
