Machine gun-wielding robot dogs are better sharpshooters, claims study

Posted by in categories: military, robotics/AI

A new Chinese study claims that machine gun-armed robot dogs are as accurate as trained human marksmen. If true, we could be about to witness a revolution of sorts in urban warfare.

The study conducted by Xu Cheng and his team “demonstrates the feasibility of a legged strike platform,” reports The South China Morning Post (SCMP).

The study’s findings were published in the peer-reviewed journal The Chinese Journal of Engineering last month. Cheng is a professor of mechanical engineering at the Nanjing University of Science and Technology.
