New Robots From Boston Dynamics LS3
LS3 will be the new robot from Boston Dynamics. It’s designed to go any where and can carry up to 400 lbs. LS3 looks like the robot BIG DOG from the conceptual design photo, but i think it will be some different from other robots, we will see it on 2012.
Here are some description about LS3 from Boston Dynamics:
LS3 is a dynamic robot designed to go anywhere Soldiers and Marines go on foot. Each LS3 will carry up to 400 lbs of gear and enough fuel for missions covering 20 miles and lasting 24 hours. LS3 will not need a driver, because it will automatically follow a leader using computer vision or travel to designated locations using sensing and GPS. The development of LS3 will take 30 months, with first walk out scheduled for 2012. The development of LS3 is being funded by DARPA and the US Marine Corps.
