I havent laughed that hard in years.
that's really creepy
I would like to see how a dog reacts to it
>>78316171
Can you program it to kill kebabs?
>>78318762
That gave me an idea of putting few layers of pork on a drone and flying it in to local mud squat. I saw drones for 30£ on gearbest.

>>78318035
here you go
>>78322399
Fuck you anon, I just made one too.
>>78322399
Is that really the ideal approach to make it completely lock up, once it's determined that it's in the process of falling?
Even when robots become commercial and their production streamlined they will still cost a shit ton.
soon
>>78322638
I have a feeling they did it for effect. They wanted to show how it gets up on its own.
>>78322399
I was hoping so hard after it took 20 seconds to stand back up that it would turn around and slip again
>>78322638
Less potential to snap a limb since it doesnt know how dar its falling id assume
>>78322601
I didn't make it, found it on gfycat. You deserve more credit friendo
STAYIN' ALIIIIIIIIIVE
>>78322846
I'm pretty sure they could program it to assess which direction it's falling based on accelerometer calculations. Maybe it could even benefit from additional GPS information, as well.
>>78322752
Probably, but as another anon pointed out in another thread, it fucking broke it's claws of doom, because of it's own weight.
>>78322638
I actually think they did it for show

Fuck off argentina you don't have any of those things.
It's several times louder. Watch a video of any of their robots. The reason the military gave up on these things is because their necessary internal combustion engines cannot help but always make a shitload of noise, due to their natural and unavoidable inefficiency as a heat engine.
Gasoline is 13,000 times more energy dense than the best lithium batteries, so don't expect robots that aren't noisy and gas powered, unless you want a super long cord plugging them into the wall at all times, or 5 minute runtimes between charging on huge batteries that you'll need to replace yearly.

>>78343421
It's the internal combustion engine powering the thing that makes so much noise. It has to be an ICE because batteries would only last half an hour or so and probably make it far more sluggish and weak.
There's no way around that, either. Gasoline is 13,000 times more energy dense than lithium batteries. We're not getting a 13,000 fold increase between now and when kek saves us all.
There's a reason a roomba is such a basic machine.

Electric motors and batteries aren't exactly new. They've had over a century of development, and now they're about 30-40% efficient. Do you expect a doubling of that efficiency? What about a tripling? Is that how the universe works? 120% efficient machines?

As you reach the top of a small hill you come face to face with the military’s latest patrol-bot. In a fraction of a second the machine’s sophisticated camera and computer system analyze your face and scan the biometric data in your subdermal implant. Immediately the drone opens fire, cutting you down in a hail of bullets that were manufactured in China.

It could work as courier for final mile from delivery car. It could navigate all areas including ladders, doors and elevators (it got arm to manipulate things at human height). 90 min endurance is fine for this application, it could recharge as soon as it returns back to delivery car. And for outdoor use they could always use combustion engine again (of course it is not compatible with indoor use). Bye–bye postman job.

Actually probably what it is, is soon as the system detects it is going off balance it seizes up. Some modern vehicles have this feature with air bags in rollovers if you say dive off an edge the airbags will deploy before you make impact.

Google thinks that BD has no monetization value, but if they could produce that stupid little robot dog for under a grand and make it follow a smartphone or dongle, people would buy a "carry this shit for me" robot.

These guys kick ass, good thing google don't own them anymoar. Man this would actually be my dream job, but I live on a small shitrock with no ambitions whatsoever these days..... ton's of people here expert at this shit too, parts of it was discovered here, at my campus actually.
Fucking love machinelearning... but there are no jobs... and my we have the advantage on this one too

lost my shit

Don't understimate them, I had machine learning with 10 russians in my class. They are grabbing on to this, and don't underestimate their skills in maths, physics you know real science.
You got a real problem with your schools these days, and I'm afraid a lot of this shit hits us too eventually. Some have started, prompting the best to leave mastercourses etc

Looks like no sleep for me tonight

Accepting some things as impossible=/=cutting off R&D as futile during the most explosive growth of technology in history.
You faggot.

The only thing that will be chasing you down a street is a horny african migrant, Sven. Don't worry about robots.
