This thing's kind of creepy looking, and souds annoying, but showcases the advancement made in robotic technology. It will be interesting to see what the first marketable applications of this type of travel holds.

That was quite neat though... looked like to people dancing to Kris-Kross

I know it's all mechanics, but my brain kept telling me that there were two people in there hunched over facing eachother. Pretty cool nonetheless.

wheels are better but still cool. also they only had a load on it at the beginning which makes me question how functional it really is as a mule

That's wicked, if not a little annoying.

it may well be two zombie lower halves powered by several jars of bees stinging their testicals.

That's what creeped me out.

Yeah it looks pretty sturdy anyway which is wicked. I'm sure with a lower center of gravity they could improve that even further. The motors looked pretty strong though so I'm guessing it probably coulda held quite a bit of weight. I'm sure with advancements in robotics it'll come along for sure anyway. Not long until the worlds economy comes to a sudden halt with the advent of robots.
