I came across an extraordinary video yesterday which just goes to show how fast robotics is advancing. The robot in the video is a T800, and it looks scary! Give it another 5 years, slap on some super intelligence and who knows what it will do.

 
DAMN!!! Jon, that video means you're gonna get a dry-cleaning bill for my pants.

The "shadow mode" demonstration brings back the movie Real Steel - which wasn't the greatest movie in the world but it was a reasonably enjoyable Rocky rip-off.

But I can see police versions of this with serious armor as a way to quell a riot or flush out an armed perpetrator. A heat-resistant version of this could become a supplement to fire departments because it won't need breathing apparatus to look for trapped victims.
 
Great idea, riot police!
