Just wanted to post this vid someone showed me at work. Darpa is the name of the company and they work along side our government and works with our national security. Crazy the advances we have made in technology, and who know's what roles these little devils might actually play in our future! Very cool but then creeps me out at the same time.

That's some cool/scary technology. Don't forget our new lasers too.

Oh shit! Call Arnold, he may help us stop this! Seriously cool stuff, but will be used against us eventually, some way or another.

Something about the way the first robot moves is disturbing ... like a mix between a show horse & a spider

It's almost like I need someone to come back from the future to knock up my mom and teach her how to make improvised explosives.

How they regain their balance creeps me out.

But that ARGUS system used on the UAV's is insane.

There is something quite disconcerting about these things.

That being said, COME AT US NORTH KOREA!
