20 March 2008 @ 8:18Big Dog - robotic quadruped

This may be old news for some, but it was the first time I saw this video. I am truly amazed. This is a quadruped robot named “Big Dog” developed by Boston Dynamics intended to act as a pack mule for soldiers traversing terrain where regular vehicles cannot travel. The balance and error-correction is almost unbelievable.
