They forgot to photoshop out the wires

Not talking about the power cables before someone mentions it

Directive 4: Classified

^^They took the cables off at the very end of the clip

11/2/2011 1:59:49 PM

Ah yeah I see it. I guess it can walk by itself but that's about it so far.

11/2/2011 2:05:51 PM

petman walks like a tool

11/2/2011 2:06:18 PM

this is awesome.

11/2/2011 2:09:12 PM

Welllllll you can tell by the way I use my walk, I'm a woman's man - no time to talk.

11/2/2011 2:22:59 PM

I'm looking for Sarah Connor

11/2/2011 2:28:00 PM

Walkmans are evolving

11/2/2011 2:30:23 PM

wow it is weird to see a full size robot like that doing pushups

To me, it's not impressive.


To me. this technology is late.


We'll be seeing robot combat troops soon enough.


We'll be seeing robot policemen soon enough.

Next time that guy pushes him again, he may get a push back. Or a solid punch in the face.

11/2/2011 3:08:45 PM

or a laser beam in the head

where? no they didn't.

11/2/2011 3:15:36 PM

I think the cables are just so if it trips or falls, it doesn't damage itself

11/2/2011 3:16:10 PM

Man, if I was working on this research, I would buy at least one fake machine gun for every robot.

First practical application is going to be "war of the machines paintball", you just watch

11/2/2011 3:38:44 PM

What's the company's name? Skynet?

11/2/2011 3:55:25 PM

They should have set it to "Staying Alive"

11/2/2011 3:56:59 PM

These guys?

There are thin cables that are attached to the shoulders in some parts of the video. They took them off at the very beginning and very end. One of the early shots from below also features the robot with red ribbon cables

The coil coming out its back is probably to connect it to power and brains and likely not load bearing.

These headless robots creep me out for some reason. Both this one and the BigDog. Why wan't they add some sort of a dummy head to them to make them a bit more appealing. I mean it doesn't have to look all cute like Asimo or something, but it doesn't need to look like Terminator meets Child's Play

11/2/2011 4:22:40 PM

they added a damned rotating red light... what more do you want???

11/2/2011 4:24:15 PM

godammit Mr. Joshua

Boston Dynamics has been acquired by Google

Looks like a more recent version of PETMAN

BD is old and busted, NASA Valkyrie is that new hotness

12/14/2013 2:20:47 AM

haters gonna hate

12/14/2013 9:58:50 AM

This bot was made for walkin', and that's just what it'll do...

12/14/2013 10:35:25 AM

Boston Dynamics plus the other seven robotics groups that Google purchased... the Nexus 6 better come with a personal android.

12/14/2013 3:47:38 PM
