Robo-dog Looks More Like A Monster

Robo-dog Looks More Like A Monster


You know what comes to the mind when a robotic dog is mentioned? Yes, we'd expect to see something cute like Sony's Aibo, but the Robo-dog you see here looks more like one from the pages of robotic hell itself. It is as large as a beast one would ride upon in the World of Warcraft, and would be able to hold its own against the Nazgul. Interesting to see what engineering genius and a bunch of scrap metal can do, powered by a Citroen 2CV engine. Two front legs will haul this puppy (no pun intended) around, as it uses two tires as its hind legs. The eyes are made out of a radar detecting device from an airplane scrapyard. Somebody forgot to tell the creator that Halloween's passed a couple months ago...
