As all investors know, investing is a very stressful occupation. Knowing this, we are going to search the internet for stress relief material to send out to our members. This can either be something very funny or just something that captivates our imagination. To the right is our current item.
------------------- VIDEO DESCRIPTION:
This video is pretty amazing and is eerily similar to the movie Terminator. It is about "Big Dog," which is a Terminator looking machine that is currently being created by Boston Dynamics.
Big Dog has an on-board computer that controls locomotion, servos the legs and handles a wide variety of sensors. Big Dog’s control system manages the dynamics of its behavior to keep it balanced, steer, navigate, and regulate energetics as conditions vary. Sensors for locomotion include joint position, joint force, ground contact, ground load, a laser gyroscope, and a stereo vision system. Other sensors focus on the internal state of Big Dog, monitoring the hydraulic pressure, oil temperature, engine temperature, rpm, battery charge and others.
So far, Big Dog has trotted at 3.3 mph, climbed a 35 degree slope and carried a 120 lb load.
