A startup called #Satyress #Robotics (🤔) has built a disaster response/ search and rescue #robot that's a 2 meter tall #centaur

It's a joke right? Is it even real? Is it just faked images or it doesn't really work?:

Hmmm
It seems to be an earnest guy hard at work on a sincere garage project
You could say he gets points for, uh, diabolical marketing
But I tend to think it's an overexposed reveal of one dude's rather personal, honest, and quirky enthusiasms that went unintentionally viral
@benroyce Those horns are entirely impractical though. They'll get stuck in the plant life.
-
@benroyce I would be absolutely terrified if the statue I saw on a hike yesterday had a fucking chainsaw.
-
we're VERY far from cute with this centaur!

apparently it's a conscious design decision to prevent it from going indoors
but yes: not exactly a well-thought out design decision
-
@benroyce a robot centaur with a chainsaw?
Fuck that.

A startup called #Satyress #Robotics (
) has built a disaster response/ search and rescue #robot that's a 2 meter tall #centaurSo I've been lost in the woods for two weeks. I'm feverish from the untreated water I drank and delirious because I've eaten very little
Then I see fucking #Terminator #Baphomet walk up on me
I don't think I'm being rescued
I think I've passed to the other side and I'm going to technohell- I'm being punished for being grumpy about #AI
LOL
Do they come in pink? How much do they pay to be used?
Not a real startup surely?
Never seen such useless nonsense if real...
Difficult to tell these days...Fun to read their page though. Many thanks.

read the news link in the followup post
he has no investors and has been at it in obscurity for 2 years
some quirk is manufactured but i tend to believe this is really just one sincerely earnest odd dude
-
it's so unnecessary and yet... so perfect. perfectly horror movie
btw you can't kill it with fire. he had search and rescue in the woods during a fire in mind when designing it
Everything has its limits.I am fully prepared to sacrifice an old-growth forest to contain and melt that demonic device.

@SamanthaJaneSmith yeah i would say it's just a work obsession but it has overtones of another kind of obsession

@benroyce «help with rescue & search after disasters» is a well-known euphemism for «we just built this robot to be cool as fuck»

The basic centaur shape makes sense. Four legs for stability combined with an upright posture for visibility. It's the facial features that are creepy.
-
@benroyce I am fairly certain it’s designed to slice open anyone who touches it.

@benroyce That thing is 100% going to be on the battlefield in a year. "The Department of Forestry and Definitely Not War would like to order 500 of them. Can they hold other things like flare guns? What about really big, multi barrel flare guns? How fast can they hunt down...trees?"
