Everybody needs to see this video. It’s stunning. Watching that thing move, you’d never believe it’s a machine. Its movements are fluid, organic, shockingly animal-like. It’s proof that we are indeed living in the future. :)

I downloaded a video of this about two years ago. After watching this thing go through its moves, you’ll have an uneasy feeling it is alive.

Saw the ice video on Youtube last night. This thing has some pretty amazing real time dynamic reactions. I wonder how fast it can or will be able to run.

I realize this is a just prototype machine, but it definately needs a better muffler. It’s not powered by Honda, that’s for sure.

Wow! Once again American technology kicks booty.
But it is creepy... it blurs the barrier between animal and machine because its so damn coordinated and reactive.
And they gotta fix the muffler problem.

Truly an awesome display of 21st-century technology! Now if they could make it quieter! ;-)
Wisecracks aside, I am truly in awe of what I saw in that video and am looking forward to seeing its practical applications in the near future!

The least they could do is put a fake head on that thing.
That thing is freaky. :P

I live in Missouri. During hunting season this thing would be in the back of somebody’s pick-up truck going to the check station before you can say “Gol durn, what the hell is dat twang!”
Good thing these folks are in Boston.
