That is pretty cool. There are probably some neat applications for an articulated robot like that...

Of course, if real spiders were dog sized, I'd never leave the house.

That video just needs some good dance music going in the background.

That thing is pretty F&$#ing awesome! I think it may come with a remote control too. i am not sure if or how it handles locomotion with thumb sticks though.

The only thing that would make that cooler would be "fricken lasers built in its head!" like scumbag said. If I could get them to give me the CAD drawings for the top exo-skeleton i bet i could modify it myself with some laser beam ports and mounts...imagine a remote control spider that sets things on fire with laser beams from its eyes hahaha

I just sent robugtix.com a message asking if there would be interested in helping with the retrofit. Redesigning the exoskeleton to house maybe two 3W lasers, proper heat sinking, TTL and a separate power supply will be no small task...but i dare to dream damnit!

I'm an arachophobe to the bone,

But I kinda want this. The kinematics engine is incredible, producing such fluid syncronized motion over large array of motors.

I'd totally mount a laser on it's head.
