Trek,

Thanks for the post. That thing is absolutely amazing!!!! What surprised me the most was how smooth the bot's actions were. No jerkiness to it, just smooth movements. Amazing.

It was so smooth in fact, that it didn't even look real. It had some sort of thing about it that just made it look fake. Not saying that it is fake but rather that it moved so well that my brain had trouble accepting it.

That was my reaction. I'm quite surprised they made a 'bot capable of such movement.

Just for the record, I for one welcome our new robot overlords.

Even the US military is getting into the act:
"WASHINGTON -The Defense Department is rapidly expanding its army of robot warriors on land, air and sea in an effort to reduce American deaths and injuries in Iraq and Afghanistan."

How long until robots start using humans to reduce robot deaths?
