A totally different rc bike

Model bicycle + Humanoid = Self balancing bipedal cycling robot

When we are saying rc bikes we usually refer to rc motorcycles. However, the word bikes does not necessarily translate to motorcycles but bicycles. An rc bicycle ? Nah, sounds too "soft" you might think. Then you got to see this video. This is no ordinary rc bicycle. It does not have a lifeless dummy riding it and a gyro to keep it upright. What you are going to see is pure hi tech !

Imagine in a few years from now a dozen of those bicycles racing on a track. A robot pushes his competitor who gets "angry" and starts fighting. They beat their servos out of them !!! Unethical ? Yes... Imaginary scenario ? Well, it might not be for long ! Kyosho, Futaba and Hitec are all currently in production of humanoid robots. If the Kyosho HOR seems very realistic then how about an actual robot riding your rc motorcycle ? Things start to get more interesting for sure.

Mr Masahiko Yamaguchi, inventor of the Bipedal Cycling Robot and a real genius to my eyes, is just showing us the way. A really astonishing and extraordinary way. When it comes to robotics, the sky is the limit...
