BigDog uses a gasoline engine to run the hydraulics. There isn’t any oxygen on Mars.

Imagine the application of this in a warfare contest?
August 11th, 2006 at 11:57 pm
Creepy thing! I’m very impressed that they’ve managed to give it such intelligence when it comes to keeping its balance.

You think its kind of scary ? Wait for them to put guns on that kind of thing. Now that will become really scary.

It’s closer to a Hunter from Half-Life 2 episode 2. A Metal Gear would have to possess a far more intricate joint system.

When it was trying to keep its balance on the ice, it reminded me of a four legged version of the Hunter from Half-Life 2 episode 2 when it’s recovering after taking a large momentous blow.

thats creepy
August 24th, 2006 at 2:42 pm
wow acts like a dog i like the slow motion when hes on ice
August 24th, 2006 at 4:01 pm
This “big dog” looks hi-tech machine and what a balance! But with only four black legs it looks too creepy. If there only could be some kind head of dog with big smile it would not look so scary =)

The real metal gear
August 27th, 2006 at 2:47 pm
man, that thing creeps me out a bit…
now if they can make it run like a cheetah and attach a laser to it’s back and a scary-ass wolf head we’d have the perfect “hellhound” army to go running through minefields or scare the hell out of the opposing army

Memory – Oh my gosh!
KITT – Humans can be so cruel.

the only thing i find great about this robot is the ability to gain control, once pushed, slipping and so on.
September 1st, 2006 at 6:05 pm

September 5th, 2006 at 3:49 am
I was falling out of my chair laughing when it’s slipping on the ice! oh my god hahahaha
