This is officially the most awesome use of one of those robotic arms that I've yet seen.

That's pretty good, even though I'm only Dutch by descent. Reminds me of a good friend who programs automation for a living.

Now, to see the OTHER side of the coin regarding a welding robot, go find the music video for "Believe" by the Chemical Brothers. :wink:

See I'm hugely impressed by the idiotic balls of the rider, but deeply saddened by their choice of Duran feckin Duran.

I've seen this clip before somewhere...I was a bit concerned when the thing seemed to almost break his neck..

I think that the video content and corresponding choice of music neatly and concisely describes the Dutch :)

That's because in Holland, you really have to go the extra mile in order to appear crazy by comparison
:roll: :D

Duran Duran is wrong, no matter where you're from....

Yep me too, In the beginning he came awfully close to smacking his head on the floor. It worries me a little if someone just a couple inches taller were to ride it. :?

EDIT I watched the video again it looks like his hair almost skims the floor. :shock:

well i bet a small scale of that wouldent be too hard.
wait, i think it would be. but a full motion tilt platform with 6 degrees of freedom could be built pretty easy i think. ultimate home videogaming!
