I’m not sure this is revolutionary, but its pretty darn cool.  I think it would be better if I could stand inside the sphere and play Quake 3 or Unreal Tournament in a fully submersed battle scene. :)

BigDog - Came across this video from a post from Shai Agassi.  The balance and agility of this thing is amazing.  For a second, I caught myself actually feeling sorry for it when the dude was trying to kick it over and when it was slipping on the ice.

The Most Advanced Quadruped Robot on Earth
BigDog is the alpha male of the Boston Dynamics family of robots. It is a quadruped robot that walks, runs, and climbs on rough terrain and carries heavy loads. BigDog is powered by a gasoline engine that drives a hydraulic actuation system. BigDog’s legs are articulated like an animal’s, and have compliant elements that absorb shock and recycle energy from one step to the next. BigDog is the size of a large dog or small mule, measuring 1 meter long, 0.7 meters tall and 75 kg weight.

 Tip of the day: Don’t set Tumblr to import additional content from a feed that is a piped aggregate feed including the original Tumblr blog feed.  This causes an infinite fail loop! :)
