I saw this on Topless Robot awhile back. It's only a matter of time we see these roaming about armed and killing all humans. First an exoskeleton, tomorrow worker drone robots, next week DOOOOOOOOOM

ha! he may be the father of cybertronics, but he still wears white socks with a black suit.

Thanky you, Asahi beer and Mazda for bring us this message!

(Should we can posit then that the people who drink the beer, then drive the car, will need the robotics most?).

I remember a news report a couple of years ago about the US military building their own version of this, but I don't think it could move around without being connected by millions of cables.

They shouldn't rest until they can build one for giraffes.
