Willing to pay money for huge fighting robots?
By the way, all for 999 999 dollars, you can pick one of the robot itself.
One of the creators:
This is amazing: huge robots entering the arena and destroy each other! Blockquote>
These mad scientists are working on a humanoid robot height of 4, 5 meters and weighing up to seven tons. Replacement pneumatic gun - instead of hands. Each robot will manage a team of hand and the pilot.
Housings Megabotov be covered by armor plates made of special crashing in contact with paint-filled projectile flying at a speed of 120 miles per hour. The computer will calculate the number of lesions on the limbs and trunk of the robot. The more hits - the more the robot will limp, the weapon will jam. After applying a sufficient amount of damage in certain parts of the robot - it will shut down.
The company's plans - not to build a robot: the more money they will gather - the more built. Purpose: To start the first championship of fighting robots.
While on Kickstarter supplied strap in 1, 8 million dollars - this should be enough for the two robots to arrange a "Fight of the Century" between them. With plenty of copies to arrange not only death match, but other disciplines - for example, capture the flag.
The first competition is tentatively scheduled for May 2016. Personally, I would love to look at it.
The prototype gun.
