We have seen robot walkers before, but nothing like this. Watch what happens when the developers try to knock over the Big Dog. It suddenly seems very much alive! This has all sorts of applications, from offroad transport to our soon to be invented robot overlords (pray they have mercy on us!)

Thanks Laughing Squid for the link!

    I am so impressed by these videos. I have seen a lot of material concerning the robot Asimo, and although Asimo has a human-like figure and speaks and plays the trumpet, somehow this “Big Dog” seems even more alive. It’s reactions when pushed are amazing. It looks just like an animal trying to regain balance. Great post. Thanks!
