Post by: Admin on May 09, 2009, 03:44:07 PM

Who would have thought robots can breakdance to japanese rap? I especially like the head spinning!

(make sure you watch the first minute and last minute, the stuff in between is a bit repetitive)

Nice, Was that all on one battery?  It seemed pretty light for all that it was capable of.

wonder where thry got the cloths ???
shows just how far humanoids have come.
there was another vid that showed a humanoid doing a cartwheel.
I cant do a cartwheel.
another step toward the robot era

I like the idea of putting cloths on a biped. To me it makes the movement look less robotic and more fluid. I will have to say that was the first biped that I have seen I thought moved smooth and natural. It would be my guess that if you take the cloths off and look at the joints moving it would probably look more clumsy and clunky.

i have seen a fair few humanoids around that have a sort of silicone around their joints, kinda like the skins you buy for gaming consoles, phones etc...
what would the point of that be? protection, looks?
