Here is Kuratas, a Japanese giant robot imagined by the company Suidobashi Heavy Industry and presented at the Wonder Festival in Chiba. This giant of scrap metal can host a human to pilot it, but can also be controlled by a smartphone with 3G.<\/p>\n
The robot is equipped with an augmented reality system, coupled with an automatic aiming system that locks its target. The shooting is triggered by a smile (see the video below): beware of giggles… Its rotating machine gun can unload 6000 BB (airsoft) balls per minute… and not only, since it is equipped with other weapons (all non-lethal) as a water missile launcher. This behemoth is able to move with its legs mounted on wheels, and this up to 10 kilometers per hour. Run away, little pedestrian!<\/p>\n
It will still cost 1,152,000 \u20ac to acquire this metal monster powered by 30 hydraulic pistons… This project, led by engineers Wataru Yoshizaki and Kogoro Kurata, required two years of work.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
