DarthTofu Posted May 5, 2008 Posted May 5, 2008 http://gizmodo.com/372272/video-of-bigdog-beta-quadruped-robot-is-so-stupid-its-hilarious The sequal, for those of you who didn't click the link. I laughed so hard my parents thought I'd gone into cardiac arrest or something. It was great, to say the least. The original is just plain eerie- it does not fall over! I can't believe how it jumped and stuff-- it's madness! 12/14/07Nu kyr'adyc, shi taab'echaaj'la Not gone, merely marching far away

DarthTex Posted May 14, 2008 Author Posted May 14, 2008 I'm not sure what to make of this Other to say "Fascinating!" Finally, after years of hard work I am the Supreme Sith Warlord! Muwhahahaha!! What?? What do you mean "there's only two of us"?
Darth_Rob Posted May 14, 2008 Posted May 14, 2008 That is quite amazing! Great find Tex. Its only a matter of time now before we perfect the hover car.

DarthTofu Posted May 15, 2008 Posted May 15, 2008 ... Except the air-jelly stays afloat with Helium. Helium isn't buoyant enough to lift a human and still be small enough to be economic in one of those things. You're looking at, like, a one cubic mile device for a hover car, there. 12/14/07Nu kyr'adyc, shi taab'echaaj'la Not gone, merely marching far away
Krytos Posted May 15, 2008 Posted May 15, 2008 I'd say it's majestic and elegant .. and there's a part of me who can imagine them floating around a futuristic skyline. As what, well, no idea. I couldn't see them as transportation, maybe advertising or signage? http://img146.imageshack.us/img146/1778/reloadedbannerdu8.gifhttp://img152.imageshack.us/img152/1333/3dartistbanneranimationws1.gifhttp://img154.imageshack.us/img154/4026/rebellionbannerdi2.gif
Jahled Posted May 15, 2008 Posted May 15, 2008 That is mentalist! Perhaps we can soon all float to work! Having just said that, i've just watched some Swiss guy soaring over the alps on the news tonight on some rocket-powered wings, so i'm getting more optimistic about getting to work on time as the years roll by.. http://www.jahled.co.uk/smallmonkeywars.gif

Mad78 Posted May 16, 2008 Posted May 16, 2008 Yes they talked alot about that here. The Swiss really seem to be into flying these days. What with Bertrand Piccard preparing his next flight. http://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a359/Mad78/Palpycard.gifhttp://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a359/Mad78/Spamkinguserbarcopy.jpgCLICK HERE IT IS VERY IMPORTANT!!!Click here is you like Trance
Eagle Posted May 16, 2008 Posted May 16, 2008 Is that the same guy who is flying over the alps with a small rocket backpack with wings? That guy´s crazy. Who cares at all?!
DarthTofu Posted May 17, 2008 Posted May 17, 2008 Holy Geneva! That's nuts! I want a pair, now! Most impressive- though now Mad has every right to be insufferable with nationalistic pride... 12/14/07Nu kyr'adyc, shi taab'echaaj'la Not gone, merely marching far away

Eagle Posted May 19, 2008 Posted May 19, 2008 That´s not that guy who I saw on TV. Too bad I couldn´t find any clip. He has a pair of wings on his back and also at least one jet-propulsion with which he can fly like good old Rocketeer. Maybe I´ll find a small movie or at least a pic somewhere. Who cares at all?!
Guest Scathane Posted May 19, 2008 Posted May 19, 2008 WoW! Gee, my attendance here is too haphazard ( ) to be sure whether or not I ever mentioned Jacque Fresco to you guys... His brain's been responsible for just about anything you can imagine... I saw this documentary about him which is pretty good... Anyone familiar with the little guy?
Eagle Posted May 31, 2008 Posted May 31, 2008 Tiger Gunship Saw some impressive clips of that helicopter in the news of the ILA taking place this week in Berlin, which showed its incredible maneuverabilities. Who cares at all?!
Mad78 Posted June 1, 2008 Posted June 1, 2008 I've heard about that gunship. Isn't that the one that the French army uses? http://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a359/Mad78/Palpycard.gifhttp://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a359/Mad78/Spamkinguserbarcopy.jpgCLICK HERE IT IS VERY IMPORTANT!!!Click here is you like Trance
Eagle Posted June 1, 2008 Posted June 1, 2008 As far as my knowledge goes it´s used throughout the Euroforces. Mainly by the UK, France, Italy and Germany. Don´t know about the other states. Who cares at all?!
Krytos Posted June 2, 2008 Posted June 2, 2008 And Australia Here's some extra info for those who care ... and if you're really interested the site also holds a lot of info on most current/mainstream military projects/equipment http://img146.imageshack.us/img146/1778/reloadedbannerdu8.gifhttp://img152.imageshack.us/img152/1333/3dartistbanneranimationws1.gifhttp://img154.imageshack.us/img154/4026/rebellionbannerdi2.gif
