Sand Flea Jumping Robot 

This thing connected a second keyboard and pressed the spacebar twice

Space + CTRL + ALT

same

This is Boston Dynamics, they don't do anything half way. Though I thought the same.

IT did a jump that was a big high. like bob Marley on a trampoline

ikr

Little low

Why imagine? It’s in the video.

I‘d buy that. Indestructible RC cars sounds awesome.

They probably discontinued it.

Can now jump 200 ft

Fairly certain these are more for data gathering

Lol me too

I concur. Skynet would totally use this. Now I'm off to build a 14 story tree house with only a rope to access it. And do some pull ups.

B O I N K

@@danielocean2665 i think their humanoids might be able to climb that one day 😂

It’s coming for you

Imlaor25 God danggit, just now I watch videos about High Ground obi wan vs anakin from adult swim channels .... Best parody videos 😂😂😂

*IS THIS A JOJO'S REFERENCE*

i hate sand!

@Darth Maul bruh...

James Fullecido it’s a Star Wars reference

this is what it was....

make roof

Spot and Atlas climb stairs quite well.

@@romxxii yeah but spot and i think atlas are intentionally easily disabled because they aren't made for violence

When the wall is built, you might end up on the wrong side......

Too expensive and complicated. Mostly just put a camera instead.

kir ra. Too expensive and complicated? You realize there are missiles used that cost more than a million dollars to use once? We have planes that can shoot a precise laser at a missile head to disarm it too. A bomb on a small robot is not expensive, and not complicated to the relevant extent.

​@@iloveeveryone8611 it is when you compare it to a nuke vs regular bombs vs missiles. bombs are cheap. metal casing to hold tnt, tail wings, a noise cone with basically a raspberry pi in it ( only for tomahawk style missiles ) for regular bombs for like b52's just a gps in the noise cone and most of these use simple triggers ( bunker busters have programmable triggers for depth )

Just make the parts out of explovies. You can compress it to a very hard explosive like plastic. Just like how they compress propellent for caseless ammo.

holy crap! that's crazy

Mykie Howell se need this on rainbow six siege😂😂

It Marios its way up

Hehe yah

Haha me too

Deyy tukk froggoz jerrrbbbbsss!!!

ikr!

Jesus christ imagine it with mecanum wheels.

Chris .

Cute, small, and very practical, i would like one. It also over comes the disability of most small 4 wheelers when they have to go up a curb. Icing on the cake is being able to scalema building with this one.

IT'S SO DAMN GOOD!

2021:

I’m still here 😂 we all are in 2021

It'll probably be a very device for exploring off-planet territory. It could propel itself in and out of craters, over ridges, and possibly over soft ground. On this planet, could be good for search and rescue, searching for crash debris in difficult terrain, possibly exploring mines and cave systems.

+Random games XD Like a Magicarp that jumped over a mountain :)

So the only thing stopping this from working is an electrical shortage!!!

+DesignJunkie58 well with lithium ion battery it would work

and tesla is working on that one

Convict- NoteWorthyKnives ôtô xe máy xe đạp tập

Indeed it has come.

Lol your team found the objective

We need a new droning operator 0:17

Twitch has really upped her game hasn’t she

Rainbow Six Siege drones don't jump nearly as high

You certainly wouldn't want them all over a beach, insisting on a reunion with their namesakes.

where they've come??? i mean is there an update video???

@@yash1152 nowadays they have robots that can walk, and perform more sophisticated tasks.

@@destroyerofturtles5024 ohw, it was in general boston dyn context - i thought the comment was for this sand flea robot

yeah sure

Why do you say so?

Jump! Insanely high

៩0

and... it can take fall damage

No

...and then explodes...

Screamers type 1

With knives

Imagine a small thing trying to kill you and you laugh at it then it jumps and reaches you............. this happens to me often

There are no knees?

DesignJunkie58 it's a joke...

No problemo: there aren't any knees already.

r/woosh

i get it's a joke but actually it's not the "legs" that launch it there's a piston in the back that does that

The balls of your school or the balls off your school XD I know what your trying to say but dirty minds will get it quickly.

Lmao ^ the balls of your schools roof figured that’d be in the basement.

It’s the hero we need yet do not deserve.

8=D

@@roboticeggs 8===D~~

Omg yes

newvultraz unlikely... cube square law. there's a reason elephants look the way they do.

sn0wchyld unlikely that it'll be terrifying? Because if you're talking about just the creation of it then you clearly ignored the first part of that person's comment where they said they understood how it impractical it was.

***** unlikely that its _possible_, rather than much less practical. the whole reason its possible to make something jump that high is (in part) because it is small and light. if it was double the size, it would weigh roughly 8 times as much, all else being equal. scaled to a car size, is what, 8x the current size? that's 512 times the weight. granted, not everything is going to scale linearly with size. the camera on the front for instance wouldn't get any larger with a larger robot - but the point remains that the weight and thus forces involved in jumping like that increase at an exponential rate vs the actual size of the robot. Hence, 'there's a reason elephants look the way they do'.

sn0wchyld Advice: don't argue with youtube commenters, it solves no issues.

It's better

and that's why people shouldn't waste money on therapists. Like they've ever been in the real world.

@Maronolq I hope I did

When they find you, these will summon Petman and BigCat to come in for the kill.

+Gino Foogle Counter-terrorism / SWAT units use similar devices with a camera attached. To scout a crisis scene before a breach. It's actually saving hostage/policeman lives

+Airburst Demigod like in rainbow six siege!?

+Gino Foogle We will just have to ban bombs then.

That would a be a powerful weapon during wars.

+Gino Foogle Everything is less cute with remote controlled bombs.

You are most definetely not the only one that laughed when it jumped.

( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

😂😂😂 we all did

Me

no.

@Jonah Paul Dolan Correct

I know right!!

Fly its a jumping rc car. you cant honestly be that fearful of technology.

Bubbles Don't **be a smart ass you know what he's thinking.**

Nick are you seriously not picturing this thing with explosives strapped to it???

Funded by the US Army.....

The flying car design are already there, but not off the shelf, nor economic enough.

Because flying cars are stupid

Not to be that guy but this was uploaded in 2012.

Shit is cool as shit yo. So they can control height and distance by adusting the angle it raises itself to. I assume.

That's neat. I was expecting some kind of complicated charge system involving battery use. Using CO2 sounds limited, but then a battery would be more so.

Ninjamoose234 is like damn son shits cool as shit, howd you think of that dawg? Doston dynamics is like, ya know, just homework shit, and shit, 😂

Interesting stuff

What was the use of making this? If drones can do this things? And moreover its just for flat terrain?

Its mildy terrifying...

2012 you mean 😨 so even earlier

Do you read your comments before posting?

@@evanfoster2789 havr robit? Harv vrahvr borit?

Jusu19 lol

It jumps because of a pressurized piston on the back of it that release a force that'll injure you if you touch ut

wait, what? google?

zhbrzgx Google acquired Boston Dynamics.

ohhhh. I believe it.

This is not a good thing. Once they get weaponised and unleashed on gen pop. we are all fucked!

All hail Skynet!

TheSquidCheese Three years now

Out of Time Media well...

Impractical??? Rescue teams could use it in natural disastersm or something *LOL*

Alisson Silva There’s a lot more practical robots for that kind of purpose out there much better/more mobile then this

C Wo it would need a lot of work to get it ready for that kind of work. With the current state it’s in, there’s a lot of better options out there. Maybe if they where to developer it more with this in mind, then it could be used for certain natural disaster scenarios.

Who is BD ? .....u know that was a long night .

Lol thinking the same thing 😂

i was thinking the same lmaoo

lol

This robot existed before the game...so go to rainbow six siege videos and post "Sand Flea^^"

thought of Crysis 3

+Synerrox เ the nazis did that too, but the dogs just got scared in battle and ran away lol

+Prodigy0960 Haha lol she controls the EU

Sweet fleeps. Fleeps. ...fleeps... Okay then.

Do a filp

lol

+Josh Ardaigh if you go out, go out in _style_

yeah true

Josh Ardaigh i was also making a joke about futurama because bender states to a person planing commit suicide from jumping

Better one 2012:Nah 2016:what about now? 2019:again

Wow! So creative

@@Obrisevac @VeteranCape hm [Edit: figured out how to multi reply] [Edit edit: apparently not]

If you were scared of what this lil thing can do back then, check what their making now 😅...

Lol! That got me lmao!

Probably, like most scientists and engineers, BD folks got into robots because it was crazy awesome. It's not wonder their robots are not only functional but look cool/cute. Spot it's not a friggin dog with a typical dog name by chance, it's fully on purpose

@K Korona I understand the military potential quite well and it still makes me laugh so what you said makes no sense. Maybe try a more logical and sensible argument.

mesmoland (in an Obidiah Stain voice)

Forgot to say "please".

ImMrAnixon You're right. Adds to the 'Google is Evil' Meme :-)

larry page is skynet

vaiouser Soylent Green is People!!!!!!!

+TheBenchmarkBrothers This explains why Valve won't release Half Life 3. The gvmt was legitimately terrified at the notion of headcrabs, so in their zeal to weaponize everything they decided to make a robotic headcrab. Valve, anticipating this put robotic headcrabs in half life 3, and when the gvmt heard about it they decided to stop valve from finishing and releasing the game. They don't want their new secret weapon exposed. Especially if that exposure teaches people how to fight them.

+evilcam OMG one of the best replies ever lmao

Medium joke

You flipped of the roof safely landed? Have you thought about parkour?

@XDranzer000 lol

Well that took a dark turn.. ;-;

You need therapy

It's-ReverZe Yep. My first thoughts were A) Explosives delivery. A couple other bells and whistles, and it could probably grab onto the underside of a bridge, or grab a wall. Boom. B) Surveillance. I have to wonder if a skilled operator could use the balconies of a high rise hotel to get to the top floor.

ReverZe Simple grenade launcher would do the trick.

Just put 4 giant(relative to the size of the phone) rubber tires on your phone and you are good to go.

@@jimmydelaware4323 lol

Dude their is glass in mobile but that is all rubber and plastic

@@siddharth2796 plastic is easier to break

Ash Udoh hahaha

Also I just noticed the amazing pun I made..heh, _jump_ cuts =} **_cries_**

I don't know for sure that it is fast or slow to jump, but I'm pretty sure that it uses the black piston to launch itself. You can see it at the beginning of the video when it is driving around.

Aww thx
