It really is.

I want sword fighting robots.

This is a step in the right direction for like transformers or Jaegers or something.

Mechabushido!

 

unrelated: whenever someone says "has science gone too far?":

 

Do I have scales and a tail yet? No?

 

Science hasn't gone far enough

I wanted a tail. But then my boyfriend pointed out how it would get closed in doors and hurt when I sat on it wrong all the time.

 

Can't deny the logic.

My dog seems to do pretty good at not sitting on her tail, I bet it wouldn't be that bad of a problem.

A prehensile tail would be kind of awesome

First they came for the Socialists, and I did not speak out-- Because I was not a Socialist.

Then they came for the Trade Unionists, and I did not speak out-- Because I was not a Trade Unionist.

Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out-- Because I was not a Jew.

Then they came for me-- and there was no one left to speak for me.

*just gonna bring this back on topic *

 

The real question is how they got these robots to do this. Did they program all the moves into both arms? Or did they write a program to anticipate and react to each others movements? There is a biiiiiig difference between the two

It's a choreographed demonstration. The entire thing was programmed to show the depth and precision that can be attained with the arms.

We trust them to make our cars, they certainly didn't need to prove their capabilities. I'm not complaining that they did this because it's awesome. I'm just saying

I don't know, I think I'd trust a robot with a welding lead more than I'd trust one with a sword. >.>
