Military Robot can jump over 25feet high fence

Just stumbled upon this little fella here.

Cute, ain't it ?



I bet it can carry a load of explosives, too.

It's called "Precision Urban Hopper" .. here's a close-up:

wow,thats the smallest 25foot fence ive ever see...
funny to watch thou

I thinking it was going to be humanoid.


Not really that impressive. There were remote control cars that looked liked that and could do all these crazy flips when I was a kid. And that was 1990s.

That fence is no way 21 foot, thats more 10 foot max.. i was hoping to see a robot with legs doing a ninja jump :-)

and yes his cute haha

That little guy looks like a prototype for an RCXD or RCRD machine. ( remote control explosive device, and remote control recon device ) it would surprise me if the military spent a few million designing that little bastard. Looks pretty cool though.

Why didn't they show it jumping a 25 ft fence then, as for a robot a remote control car would be the correct desciption!

Maaaan, you got us all hyped by making us think it was a transformers type of robot.

yea, come back with big robots fighting or don't come back!!

That fence, as has been pointed out (and jumped by lesser robots) is 9-10 foot tops.

But it is kinda cute, and I do want.

The jump over the 25 foot fence is classified as "MAJ12"

They don't post that on Youtube, c'mon ...

I bet that one has guns and all kinds of cameras. This is a very valuable robot, good for robbing banks too.

Is it cheaper than a ladder?

I'm expecting a humanoid robot to michael jordan jump over this fence man lmaoo

the hell is this haha

pretty crazy potential actually...

Sand Flea is an 11-lb robot with one trick up its sleeve: Normally it drives like an RC car, but when it needs to it can jump 30 feet into the air. An onboard stabilization system keeps it oriented during flight to improve the view from the video uplink and to control landings. Current development of Sand Flea is funded by the The US Army's Rapid Equipping Force. For more information visit www.BostonDynamics.com.
