China stages first-ever humanoid robot kickboxing match - Asia Times
Closer to reaching the goal.
Trainers controlled their robots remotely with joysticks.
soo not autonomous? just more expensive battlebots... yawn.
Pretty sure it's at least semi-autonomous. In the video you can see the bots react to hits and recover their footing, there's no way a human can control all those reflex actions in real time.
Remember
Nlow that was a great show. I always wanted in on that too. Back when Radio Shack still dealt in parts for remote control cars.
Battlebots is awesome. A more expensive battle bots would be awesome.
Here's the final round. Honestly, the robots did better than I expected. This is fun, but I think we're 5-10 years away from CCP giving these robots guns and deploying them against humans.
That was a lot more boring then I thought it would be.
Around the 35 minute mark is a fight with pink and black that ends in a very funny way.
Yeah that was seriously disappointing, who knew "robot kick boxing" could be so boring.
That's not a long time.
It also gives them time to finish the modernization of their navy into a true blue-water carrier-based force.

Meanwhile, the West is busy shooting itself in the head
Yeah, give terminators Neo like abilities
It's not like we stood a chance anyways. Just strap a gun to those Boston Dynamics dogs and we're all doomed.
You can get them with a flamethrower… https://throwflame.com/products/thermonator-robodog/
Obligatory link to slaughterbots
Pretty sure that's the exact premise of a Black Mirror episode.
The first steps to Real Steel, I'm in
Oh my god......How I Met Your Mother was right!!! This is absolutely going to lead to "Wrestlers vs Robots"!!!
Battlebots, the new vision.
Can we get robots vs wrestlers like in HIMYM? At least one dream not tainted by the future.
Not the world's first as this fine lump of shit already exists...
This just happens to coincide with right when Joe Taekwondo Rogan becoming a Xian.
Coincidence ? I think not.
I first read "Xian" as "fan of Xi Jinping", and then this comment would have made sense. But no, Joe Rogan claims to have become a Christian.
This is what we're using our resources on? What a waste
Think of it as research. For when the CCP sends robo soldiers to take over the world.
