That robot is just steering like a human at low speeds with their ankles and not white body weight swings. Your robot is a rigid beginner haha

جيرسكوب في مراوح !!! اين الانبهار ؟
@mr.tweaty Says:
8:20 NO WAY there’s genuinely that much delay…
@Diy303channel Says:
This robot look like the mobile suit Turn A Gundam and look like syd mead design mobile suit. The name is Wodom mobile suit
@CommanderBarfy Says:
This robot is better than me at four things
@AF-bv7tb Says:
Future _"law"_ enforcement... 🙁😔😞
@paurushbhatnagar8100 Says:
Propellers , it gives robots the wings . Now attach these to humans tightrope walking will be cakewalk.
@keithrichards9316 Says:
Pretty cool, but I can't understand why it feet look like it's wearing high heels
@B33Ys Says:
THIS CUTE AF BEE BOT NEEDS A VIDEO GAME SO THAT I CAN BEE THIS BOT
@sunnymon1436 Says:
Couldn't this design be improved with gyroscopes and flywheels, or is that just dead weight if you also want it to fly?
@WhyIsEveryVersionOfMyNameTaken Says:
the sound near the end of the video (9:32 for this one) is always called something different by cc... this one is called "quirky sound effect" but I have also seen it call it "techno sound effect" and many other things, including some really funny ones!
@KovaksAlpha Says:
bro cannot skate
@lyleroberts6006 Says:
Genius!
@ivandelrio3097 Says:
They remind me of the portal robots or the megaman ones
@mr.tweaty Says:
Armored core 6:
@hurrypeter Says:
Think about those workers who are working all day and hearing this sound 😂😂😂
@tigranohanyan3321 Says:
Its cool, but you need a lot of energy for that. How long it last. Probably 5 minutes. LOL
@1axcohn1 Says:
Why use bipedal locomotion in concert with propellers? It would seem that 4 or 6 articulating legs would be more stable and allow for navigating in more challenging terrain than human-style legs.
@ThinkingThings-q4p Says:
That's amazing. I have a channel about building home-made intelligent robots :) I wish robots were available at a low cost for everyone.
@monkeyclub2100 Says:
Imagine a gundam kit on this thing👀
@portcybertryx222 Says:
As soon as I saw this I knew it was Caltech 😂
@GoofBallGuru Says:
4:14 don't tell me she's being serious is trying to justify that they are going gentle on some robot 🤖 the way we have to justify why our 🐕🐶 pets got injurd.. unbelievable 🤦
@GoofBallGuru Says:
Leonardo and they put high heels 👠.. we all know what they did here! Even the robots are not spared from their 🌈 🤣 let's hope everyone here can take a joke.
@ImDemonAlchemist Says:
I'm not exactly convinced that this has much more potential than just being an interesting experiment. But it is interesting.
@ImDemonAlchemist Says:
I think people are missing the point of "it's not just a drone with legs". The "just" is key. It's a drone with proper robotic legs, that function like bipedal robots. You can add legs to a drone by just attaching a tripod to it. It is a drone with legs, just a more complicated arrangement of that.
@Logicminder Says:
I will hate to fight in a war against robots💀
@worstcase6163 Says:
Humans don't have a clue that we're making our own replacements! Terminator, the Matrix, War Games are just a few red flag movies that we're just gonna ignore, right?
@dariusdima5059 Says:
Hi ! I'd like to reproduce it with a few modifications. Is it open source ?
@Freakazoid12345 Says:
Problem is that this will not scale up for the same reason that you can't have giant insects.
@Zeed_316 Says:
That's a thicc bot...
@katochnr Says:
Nice
@Dimaz42 Says:
the simple bipedal form and stiff movements reminded me of Metal Gear Zeke 😅
@nickgold7853 Says:
the world of technology is forever changing....so for someone as old as me, it provides an insight to what the future holds. I only hope we can adjust accordingly. Bravo!
@qwertyzxaszc6323 Says:
Pretty good! And that's wearing high heels, imagine how well it would do wearing sneakers!
@eaglestar2962 Says:
Why not using several gyroscopes to balance the robot.
@wotancoyota3628 Says:
Maybe integrate some gyroscopes too
@wotancoyota3628 Says:
Next upgrade swimming and diving
@changowowowoezzy9617 Says:
Jumping ang gliding seems a way to go but this looks like a waste
@IndigenousVoices Says:
Flyinf Demon Babies, Ruuun !!!
@TheNickchanel Says:
I would love to see it skating in the winter 😊
@badgerlord5390 Says:
this is just metal sonic's endoskeleton
@AliHasan-gn2gm Says:
they look the Metal Gears from the series
@digestiveissue7710 Says:
Half efficient at flying, half efficient at walking, good job you've made a chicken
@deadisthenewblackband Says:
this is the coolest design for a robot i've ever seen and looks totally scalable.
@EaglesHARLEY Says:
Well can’t make movies anymore if they’re all becoming reality. I want to think that sucks. iRobot was a good movie. Chatgpt and AI will figure out something.
@dlv5 Says:
I think To put hand, Just move the fan on back as leg and knee for balance And put a fan on head for fly👍
@tomlys5225 Says:
Why don’t they directly put wheels on the feet?
@ResoluteGryphon Says:
This one scientist sounds like Jeki Yoo. Oh my!
@travelnewsbeneficialknowle3020 Says:
👏👏👏👏👍👍
@mpolo17 Says:
Seems like they solved one problem which created a walking robot with four spinning blades and makes extremely loud running sounds constantly. Not sure about this one.
