Trainers controlled their robots remotely with joysticks.
soo not autonomous? just more expensive battlebots… yawn.
Pretty sure it’s at least semi-autonomous. In the video you can see the bots react to hits and recover their footing, there’s no way a human can control all those reflex actions in real time.
Remember
Nlow that was a great show. I always wanted in on that too. Back when Radio Shack still dealt in parts for remote control cars.
Battlebots is awesome. A more expensive battle bots would be awesome.
Ok. I know. Apocalypse and dystopia. But c’mon. We have gladiator robots. That’s cool

Oh my god…How I Met Your Mother was right!!! This is absolutely going to lead to “Wrestlers vs Robots”!!!
Battlebots, the new vision.
Not the world’s first as this fine lump of shit already exists…
Can we get robots vs wrestlers like in HIMYM? At least one dream not tainted by the future.
This just happens to coincide with right when Joe Taekwondo Rogan becoming a Xian.
Coincidence ? I think not.
This is what we’re using our resources on? What a waste
Think of it as research. For when the CCP sends robo soldiers to take over the world.
