Make sure you watch the whole video. Although just watching this thing walk around is very cool, the balance correction ability is absolutely incredible, and honestly kinda scary.

Old, but thanks for remind me about this. It is sooooo hysterically funny after watching your video, Jay.
I can’t help but wonder how easy it would be to defeat these things. While a robot army advancing sounds terrible, I’m sure they would fall for even the simplest of traps i.e. tiger pits, a dolly with leaves on it, someone holding their leg out, banana peels, etc.

Also, the wars of the future are held on Mario Kart tracks.
