322. Video of the day: “Boston Dynamics”
Save This Post as PDFI think it is worth posting about… I’ve noticed the BigDog project (by Boston Dynamics) about a year ago. It seems that their robot is now good enough for U.S. military to use it in Afghanistan.
The first video in the playlist is BigDog’ test in March 2008 (very impressive), the second shows that sometimes the robot does not behave very well though 
Finally, after watching the third video I will understand how hard it is to write a good physics engine for a computer game
