Robotics is a fascinating field.
The age of humans becoming obsolete for manual labor is approaching at an increasing speed.

[RegulatorCountry]

They’re angling for police and military use for that thing. No other reason for the speed and agility. I have serious reservations and genuinely dislike/distrust this. At the hands of a corrupt leftist government, take a good hard look because it’s going to be pursuing you eventually.

The Guardian video link doesn't work for me (as usual). Great vid on YT. What it does is just incredible. Be sure to watch to the very end.

That is insanely cool.

Boston Dynamics is doing some amazing things with robotics. This is a testimonial video on a website for a collaborative software company called Atlassian.

The first testimonial in this video is from Boston Dynamics, an Atlassian customer, showing another one of their robots in development:

Dude! that thing, like, totally shreds, man!

Can't wait to tell Ava and Kiko about this and share a good laugh. Huh...where are they? Ava? Kiko? Where's my badge? Open the doors Ava. Kiko? Mommy?

[Slyfox]

That thing could still be toppled by a rock placed strategically in its way. But then it would get back up and go after the person who placed them there.

I would if it could be programmed to catch people who like to diddle little kids?

Hey Robby - can you roll down to 7-11 and pick up some milk and eggs for me?

Then mow the grass...

Is it bulletproof?

[dangus]

Fascinating. Not terrifying, but I’m pretty sure Michael Bay was behind the spec to have it convert from cycle-type to upright and back again.

[PLMerite]

Very impressive, but how well does it handle a rocket launcher and/or a minigun?

[Jmouse007]

All the better to detect, track you down and kill you my dear.

They are in the process of creating the perfect human replacement, AND KILLING MACHINE. The implications are genuinely frightening.

Once "perfected" in a few short years no human will be able to compete with or protect themselves from these malevolent monstrosities. Arm it with a plethora of weapons and you have T2 on hyper steroids.

Imagine an anti-American administration like Obama's having access to this technology and unleashing it on those of us conservative Americans the Democrat party refer to and deem deplorables, irredeemable, "right-wing terrorists" and "the enemy"!

[Moonman62]

I welcome our new robot overlords.

When they start powering these things with nuclear energy, look out.

[NoCmpromiz]

I hear that Handle is so unique that it is composing an oratorio.

The working title is rumored to be ‘Handle’s Messiah’..
