Interesting new silicon valley start-up that is making very hi-tech attack robots at a much lower cost than its next competition the Talon.

Ready for the future....?

In regards to MA and technology -

If they ever invent a "holodeck" type training partner, a hologram or robot, that can take all the punishment and keep coming back, it will take MA to the n ext level, imagine the deadly WITH aliveness !!!

I cant view youtube at work so i cant look for a clip of what I am going to descirbe, likely some of you saw the footage already.

On the news the other day they had a story on this Exoskeleton that was developed, its realy actually a very good exoskeleton too. It showed the guy doing various activites, including using a speed bag, and doing some punching combos.

He also was lifting something crazy like 200 or 400 lbs without breaking a sweat.

I wish I could find the exact footage, maybe when i get home i will look and post it.
