How can it see? I find it very interesting the ability to see where it’s going and react to changes. The hoping and bouncing is straight up physics simple enough to calculate.
Guys I’m not sure if you’ve all noticed but after climate change makes earth unlivable for humans robots like these are going to take over and kill every last remaining of us.
Image this thing scaled up to the size of a person how high it could jump! That’s with 1 leg too. If it had 2 legs it could run, and imagine how accurate. I saw one that could do a flip a few months ago. There’s no telling how advanced these are now. Pair this with ai and we a fucked. This stuff has been getting scarier and scarier.
This is super cool. I’m curious, can it correct for a bad jump? As in the surface is not stable and doesn’t give a solid platform to push off of. How does uneven terrain affect it’s jump and landing?
Just need to combine this tech with Boston Dynamics dogs so when in combat and the dog get damaged, the other legs can just hop away similar to the batpod from TDK.
What would it take to do a larger version of this that could decelerate a human payload from terminal velocity to 0? Think of being able to jump out of airplanes or buildings without having to worry about how to handle a parachute.
The year is 2030. You are hiding in the corner of your room behind a dresser. No lights are on except for your lava lamp illuminating the room with a red hue. All of a sudden there is a crash and you look to see your window shattering with a pack of 5 of these pixar lamp scouts with frickin lazers and knifes attached to their head jump in. You open your mouth to scream but it’s already too late. You have been spotted, and before you could let off a shriek of terror one makes a precision hop and slices right through your heart and off all and out the window, followed by the rest of the pack. They win.
Man, biomimetic minisystems is just about the coolest thing I ever heard of.
Man, just imagine if in Terminator instead of crawling on the floor of that factory he just engages pogo-death mode..
I wanted it to jump on a ball and make the Pixar logo.
Awesome use of technology, but annoying little shit, ain’t he?
You guys, stop. You’re going to get us all killed. All it takes is one military to weaponize any of these inventions and we’re all goners.
Edit: I know governments already weaponized things like this. Just saying it won’t end well
I want one as a pet
Live action Pixar lamp movie coming soon.

Bounce bounce bounce bounce *destroys all humanity* bounce bounce bounce bounce….
Cute little guy.
Just yesterday I was watching the movie Next Gen thinking how absurd all those little robots are. Welp.
This bothers me for some reason.

This is adorable.
Put it in a spoink costume and sell millions.
Hey! Listen!

This is awesome yet equally terrifying.

Now give it a tiny knife and have it chase someone.
I mean that’s cool, but does it pass the butter?
We should kill it.
Of all they types of robots that could wipe out the human race and take over, I don’t want to die to a prawn on a pogo stick.
Mine clearance! ????

Good times ahead.

The end of the world is going to be adorable.
Let the rise of Metal Heads begin!
“I want metal legs ”
You think he’s wearing glasses because that thing has bounced and hit him in the face?
I for one welcome our one-legged robotic overlords
I can see applications in annoying advertising. Definitely.
Imagine if it had two bouncy feet on its head too!
So cute!
This is awesome and adorable at the same time.
But can it do a backflip?
It’s all fun and games until this thing jumps into your coffee, or toilet or something
I love this little guy. I want him to hop beside me and alert me when I’m near some treasure.

This is easily the coolest robot I’ve ever seen.
I wonder how this will revolutionize sex robots.
Impressive

We are one step closer to replacing [bill gates](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QqfjiuqVrV4)
I can’t stop watch it jump, it’s adorable.
My death will be cute and swift.
SNØVSEN!
Being that robot looks exhausting.
I dub thee: Mono-Roo.
Gecko!
my cat would love this
*takes off sunglasses*
​
My god what have we done…
All I could think of was Mr. Hanky from South Park
So it’s not enough to give these killing machines the ability to to jump… You also have to give them kazoos? Menacine AND annoying!
At least when I imagined the murderbots they were terrifying, being murdered by this cute little robot would be even more upsetting.
This thing feels like it was programmed to be obnoxiously happy.
If you knock it over, can it get back up?
These things are getting so fluid and natural in their movements.
this is sick
​
Hey! look. at me. down. here. they. call me. Salto. 1. P.
Reminds me of something out of Rick and Morty.
nice
Why do I find this so fucking adorable??
ok this is my new favourite robot…. i want one as a pet lol.
This looks like a great cat toy. My cat would love this!
That’s epic though
I. NEED. ONE.
The missed a trick not calling it [Zebedee](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9rFW97zHjvY).
OK but can it crush a letter ‘I’?
Its mind-boggling how quickly it processes environmental data, does the required calculations and adjusts itself for the next jump
Is it all on the bot itself? Or is it being done with another machine?
This will come in handy for any Studio Ghibli themed rides at amusement parks
>What is my purpose?
[But what happens when it hits something dangerous](https://youtu.be/dtScY0_8bBA)
That bouncing lamp from Spirited Away, anyone?
Just add explosives and these things would become some scary little weaponized robots
I want 12.
Bhop script
Bhop script ??
God dammit that robot is adorable.
Imagine being a soldier and having 50 of these fuckers bouncing towards you. Each loaded with a small explosive…
I give this an Owen Wilson: ‘WOOOWWW’
Think of all the professional pogo stickers that will be undermined by this automation.
Does it know how to pass the butter?
Oh my god, is this real? o.o
Great! My upstairs neighbour can relax now that he can get a robot to jump around for him instead!
US Military: Can you attach a bomb to it?
Heart of a champion….oh, L’il Brudder….you can make it on your own.
So much for stairs being our best natural defense from the coming robot uprising.
All it needs are some googly eyes.
Some please mass produce this. It’ll make Christmas 2019 hilarious!
Can you imagine strapping one of those onto each leg? BOOOOOOODZIT! METAL LEGS!!!!!
I want one with two legs so I can have a robot Skippy.
Or Tigger.
We’re so dead.
i love technology,,!!! we’re evolving ..lolz 😀
For some weird reason I feel like shooting at it…
It’s a dufflepud!
Tigger?
It’s a real life Q-bert. (For those Y2K kids, that was a stand up arcade game you fed quarters into for entertainment).
weaponize it with small cyanide projectiles
my god, theyre evolving

This reminds me of the movie Small Soldiers for some reason. Creepy little toys bouncing around and taking over.
Thanks I hate it
