8 Foot Robot “Titan” Laughs, Cries, Sings & Dances

Have to agree with Jaynap. The suit is nice but that’s not a robot.

I’m not sure if it’s a real robot or not, but one thing’s for sure; it will haunt my nightmares for some time to come.

One thing is sure, I’m always going to wish I could get the nine minutes of my life back that I wasted watching that video.

You have them

Not a Robot it is a guy in a suit you can see his arms in the tubes and the miror on the front is so he can see out of the suit.

You’d be amazed at the technology of tomarrow that is around today

Thanks gawd it is not real! Otherwise knowing something like that really already exist would have haunted my dreams… brrr! Fortunately instead it could be considered more similar to a PowerArmor suit, ie the exact thing the human race will desperately need to fight against something like 8 feet robots, if and when they will become a real thing.
Ehm, end scene of the last episode of Battlestar Galactica anyone? :)

Here is what I found.

Titan the Robot is the stage name of any one of a number of human dancers who perform dressed in an android costume[1][2] created by Cyberstein Robots Ltd in 2004.[3]
The costume is approximately 2.2 metres (7′ 3″) tall and 47 kg (7.5 st)[1] and increases to 350 kg (55 st)[1] including the performer and onboard equipment. It was designed by Nik Fielding, who runs Cyberstein from Torquay, Devon, England.[2] Titan has performed at a variety of public and private events, from the Commonwealth Games and Alton Towers to bar Mitzvahs[1] and shopping centres.[4] Titan has appeared on Channel 4 television and BBC Children In Need.[3] When asked by The Times what skills potential performers would require, Nik Fielding replied “They’d need to be good at playing Xbox because that’s what it’s like in there.”[2]
In performance, Titan moves about freely in an open area and uses music and comedy to interact with spectators. Shows last for about 30 minutes and can be mixed with a walkabout.[4]

i agree with some it is a 1.5 million pound robot, i seen it a minehead, and he is ontolled by a man who has the controlos and sound machine at the back of the trolley he is transpoted on,

Woa. Thankyou for sharing. I certainly did not think about this particular issue in that way before and it opened some serious discussion for me on this topic.

Interesting post. I’ve saved this page to check back later.
