Progress in Robotics

Looks like science is catching up to science fiction. Watch the video (turn off the audio first; for some reason, they recorded the high-pitched buzzing noise the robot makes when it is running). It is absolutely amazing what this can do.

I would have loved to have one of these when we burned wood.

Update: Check out their other robots: LittleDog, RiSE, and, the coolest one to watch, RHex.
