Ready for some wild video? Here’s some clips from the Robot Olympics. This competition was held in China and frankly, I find the whole thing disturbing. How about that for some honesty? Wanna see robots running around insanely fast? Just hurtling down a track with a speed that is a stark reminder that you would never stand a chance if one decided to chase you down?
I don’t care for this crap. Not one little bit. This is practically the ‘Robot Soldier Games’. All I can see is different scenarios where it’s robot’s vs humanity and I don’t like the way the odds are moving.
And while it may look silly now, just know that the robot developers are working on teams of robots working together with one common goal. Not a fan.
Now who’s ready for a team of robots that know how to fight?!
Check out the high jump on this thing. Holy shit!
And again: Holy shit. The level of prediction of movement is insane. The bot has to compute how hard the ball was hit and predict where it will go. Fucking hell.
At least they look silly when they run, right? Cue the nervous laughter.
Now if you’ll excuse me, I’ll be doing some research on how to make an Electro Magnetic Pulse from items I can buy at Home Depot.
