Video: Russia’s FEDOR Robot Can Drive a Car and Even Shoot Guns
OutdoorHub Reporters 01.15.18
Is Russia toying with the idea of building real-life terminator robots?
Well, if a video Alex Klokus shared on Facebook tells us anything, they already accomplished that feat, and it’s really terrifying what this thing can do . . .
If a clip on Youtube showing a tomato sorting machine makes you a little nervous about robots and technology, then this is likely your biggest nightmare coming to life. (Be sure to turn up the volume on the video for best viewing.)
This humanoid robot can complete multiple tasks, such as driving a car, shooting guns, heck it can even bang out a set of pushups when it’s bored like Cam Hanes or something . . . just kidding, this thing probably doesn’t stand a chance against Cam in a pushup contest.
Despite the internet rumors, Deputy Prime Minister of Russia, Dmitry Rogozin says they are not creating Terminator.
Shooting exercises is a method of teaching the robot to set priorities and make instant decisions. We are creating AI, not Terminator
