Warren Posted March 18, 2008 Share Posted March 18, 2008 You're not gonna believe this one. http://www.break.com/index/cute-dog-plays-fetch-with-himself.html Somebody either had WAY too much time or their hands or they're one of those Rube Goldberg fanatics... I'd need 3 of them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tombarace14 Posted March 18, 2008 Share Posted March 18, 2008 I need one that throws like 50 yards. My dog wears me out sometimes! But that thing is still pretty cool! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

myplasticegg Posted March 18, 2008 Share Posted March 18, 2008 Too bad my dog wants to kill anything with an electric motor. Ever have a dog bit your hand with a cordless drill in it?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
capt_furious Posted March 18, 2008 Share Posted March 18, 2008 Smart dog. He knows exactly where to put it...not sure every dog would be able to figure that out. Pretty neat. Right up there with the soda can launching mini-fridge. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

73DatsunZ Posted March 20, 2008 Share Posted March 20, 2008 That is pretty amazing, and how it jumped that high! That thing could be beneficial for many things. It was carrying like a 340lb payload, easily could carry a person Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Globerunner513 Posted March 20, 2008 Share Posted March 20, 2008 Search And Rescue maybe? Might still be a bit slow for that though. AWESOME product they've got going though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
m4xwellmurd3r Posted March 20, 2008 Share Posted March 20, 2008 dude what is that thing its buzzing too loud lets shoot it .lol. its creepy how it moves so lifelike when it is falling on the ice It buzzes because it runs off a 2 stroke engine. it'd dead silent when running on pure electricity though XP that thing IS awesome. I saw it before, but never on ICE. It moves so realistically when it's regaining balance and stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

woldson Posted March 20, 2008 Share Posted March 20, 2008 That is has got to be the greatest example of robotics I've ever seen!!!!!!!!!!!!! Its was so good, like Braap said, scary! I don't know how the computation were done so quickly for the nibleness of the machine. You would think it would require a supercomputer. (really) Kept thinking it might be a joke with two guys under there. The response seem oddly human like, or even better. Still can not figure out how I can compute so quickly..... Mabey a mechnical respone of some nature as well a computations...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warren Posted March 20, 2008 Author Share Posted March 20, 2008 So much for a cute dog playing with a robotic throwing machine... Surely that 4 legged spider is NOT was was intended to be shown here, but that's ok too. Not the first time a post has been sidetracked.

G.I.jonas Posted March 20, 2008 Share Posted March 20, 2008 Look into Boston dynamics,it seems that it has another alias - ARMY mule. I think we can all figure out what it will be for. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
