Japanese Robot Has a Kick!

[Aedes]

Sakamoto says that he will apply what he's learnt from this project, as well as the other robots he has built, to making a full-sized, working Gundam within the next ten years.

Now that is something I'm looking forward to see.

 

[timmytom1]

So that`s what peter crouch does in hia spare time XD

If I ever saw that thing late at night, I would probably wet myself.

What IS that thing on it's forehead supposed to be?

You hear that, people of the world? Japan's mechas are coming to fruition and they've set a (albeit vague) deadline.

We're all fucked.

And they will kick our ass in football

Fixed =_=

Frankly, having some underpaid robotic competition for the humans can only be a good thing. Have you seen the salaries some footballers get paid for kicking a bit of leather into an outdoor cupboard?

 

[WrongSprite]

he can walk around a kick a ball.

Typo Nilly m'dear.

OT: I can't wait for the working gundam ^_^

I call dibs on Tallgeese III.

 

[Gamine]

OK!
This isn't surprising, we all saw it coming

 

[ArchBlade]

And here I thought building a robot capable of walking on two legs was expensive. The Japanese are doing it left and right.

I refuse to reference Skynet, but we are all totally screwed.

 

[Andronicus]

I loved the music. Totally complements the obviously serious tone this video chooses to take in documenting another great step towards more realistic robotics.

 

[Aeryn Seoung]

This just reminds me of the giant Gudam Model they've been making over in Japan.

 

[letsnoobtehpwns]

One step closer to the end of the world...

 

[Mrsoupcup]

One step closer to the end of the world...

Once they learn how to use guns and seduce women were screwed.

 

[Sallix]

It's Peter Crouch's true form!

 

[Darkrain11]

Pretty cool. That Gundam will be frekin' sweet if he makes it.

 

[The Great JT]

I really hope he makes that gundam.

Seriously, it's gonna be the future real, real soon.

 

[More Fun To Compute]

I would watch the world cup if Japan fielded a team of roboathletes.

 

[Dr Ampersand]

All he needs to do is attach lasers to the eyes and we're doomed!

On a side note I've always wondered why don't robot creators give their robots a tail for balance? It would help them to walk quicker as any imbalance could probably be corrected mostly by the tail alone.

I know!

And who the hell do we have working on building a Gundam? Wtf are they doing with all that research money!!

 

[Toty54]

Robots competing in UEFA?

 

[z121231211]

I think the biggest problem with this video is that anime otakus are making robots.
