Timberjack , Walking tree cutting robot

Lets weaponize this!

perfect for selective logging and specialized harvest techniques.

Hell it takes a MAN!! Hell no damn robots!!! Damn

IRL runescape bot

BigDog has nothing to do with this, but they are meant for the same environments.

Oh shit... It's an AT-TC.... All Terrain Tree Cutter

There is an army version. It's called the BigDog. It was built by Boston Dynamics

Am I the only one who's creeped out by this thing? Good thing I watched this vid, otherwise I'd freak out if I came accross this thing in the middle of the forest.

Can a laser cannon be attached to this and then used to do battle with lightly armed forest Ewoks?

Is this a cost-effective way of harvesting small timber? I would think that an expensive system like this could only be effective when prices for that timber are really high. I'll bet many companies would never even think of doing it this way on account of the expense.

@mrmllama b.a = Blated away 1 200USD RPG would lay waste in a multimillion dollar walking vehicle

Does the robot have the ablity to determine where to place each foot during descent? Can the robot plan a path of steps and warn if the path is not possible?

yeah i bet there is already a army version..
