"At least they're using the equipment. I worked at a robotic research lab once where they had an arm connected to a parallel processing VME box.  I was there for about a year, not one of the researchers, and I saw them turn it on once.…"

"Hi Falvin, We actually have a collaborative relationship with MPI (the researchers behind the video you linked to). Researchers actually work together to improve technologies quite often and I think it would be a sad world if we let technologies…"

"Thanks Mike, It can handle 500kg (1100pounds) so that's quite a bit of room for extra gear.  I see there's an option for a 1000kg system now too! Cheers, James"

 Imagine strapping into one of these instead of your standard head-mounted display for FPV!The system, while linked to the likes of X-Plane and Microsoft Flight Sim, can take raw input from gyro data etc and put the pilot into that position.  With a Mil-SPEC HMD, the system is really quite immersive and a fun ride.  While not a traditional UAV related post, I thought you might be interested. Check out Universal…See More
