Although this Seoul combat robot may get it job done in military, but it’s not as humanism as The Terminator - robot that saves life instead of WAR!

According to design blueprints released during a meeting of science-related ministers, the robot will have six or eight extendable legs with wheels allowing it to move like an insect over uneven terrain.

The robot will be armed with various weapons and will operate both by remote control and its own artificial intelligence system.

Ok, I’m just getting too much of transformer animation’s series . Actually, this transformer “robot” is the World’s first bi-pedal exoskeleton (Codename: Land Walker) developed by Sakakibara-Kikai.

Japanese robotics and machineries manufacturer Sakakibara-Kikai has developed the world’s first bi-pedal exoskeleton, bringing the battlemechs and cyborg technology found in sci-fi movies and novels into reality. This mechanatron is similar to those found in movies such as the Imperial Scout Walker (AT-ST) found in Star Wars. Previously, there was a similar mechanatron also created in Japan by Tmsuk called Enryu. Although Enryu is much faster than Land Walker, it uses caterpillar-like tracks rather than legs to move.
