A company from Japan called Suidobashi Heavy Industries recently created its 13-foot humanoid robot called Kuratas. This robot is the creation of artist Kogoro Kurata and robotics scientist Wataru Yoshizaki. They designed it to be some kind of war machine with guns and sheilds but it is not deadly as it seems. That is why you can buy it for yourself. Kuratas also can be useful because it runs 10 km/h and it can be used as a car. Very expencive one!
There are three ways to control Kuratas – 1. through a remote controller, a master slave type (you can actually enter in the robot and control it from inside. It has two joysticks and moving them you move the robot.), or an iPhone. Kurats has an operating system V-Sido and it is equipped with a launcher and a two Gatling gun. You only need to smile if you want to activate the guns which by the way fire 6000 bullets in one minute. The robot is equipped with a Xbox Kinect in order to recognize your peoples facial expressions.
Best part is that the Company allow customization of the robots. If you decide to buy it, you can equip the bot with all sorts of gadgets and upgrades. You can add glass holder, different sorts of guns, Shotproof, Pilotless Head and many other things. You can eve pick a color of your robot. Imagine your mean war machine in pink
This is like a dream robot for all robot kit fans. But there is one tiny problem. The price. The basic Kuratas costs 1.35 million dollars and upgrades make the price even bigger. If you have that kind of money, we suggest you buy this robot because we think it is worth every cent. And when you buy it, we’d like to ride with you a few miles
