These Robots Had a Rough Night
Don't get me wrong, the technology involved in the development of these machines is just outstanding. To the general public, some of them may still look a bit clumsy compared with Optimus Prime, but as every engineer knows it's really not easy at all. We came across this compilation and it's just too hilarious to miss. To be honest, I've seen some humans arriving back home with less accurate control systems than these droids. Just take a walk around the city on a Friday night...
Now that we know the winners of the DARPA Robotics Challenge, and we've seen some really impressive performances (hats off to the devs!), it's time to have a bit of fun...

Hint: The last one is a must see.
