The Nadia project aims to develop highly mobile ground robots that can function in indoor and urban environments where stairs, ladders, and debris require robots to have mobility and manipulation dexterity nearing that of a human.
Working with Boardwalk Robotics, the IHMC team has designed Nadia as the next generation of humanoid robots. The Nadia project aims to develop highly mobile ground robots that can function in indoor and urban environments where stairs, ladders, and debris require robots to have mobility and manipulation dexterity nearing that of a human.
The applications of this design could be useful in explosive ordinance disposal, nuclear remediation, disaster response, firefighting, and other scenarios that might be dangerous for humans. Nadia’s development is supported by several sources, including the Office of Naval Research (ONR), Army Research Laboratory (ARL), NASA Johnson Space Center, and TARDEC.

really we sure come a long ways can’t wait for VHS to come out
Is this a joke? Obviously our technology has advanced a lot since 2000 so yeah this must be a joke. Weird humor but ok.
It’s going to need a long extension cord if it’s going to be out and about… 😂
