▲Stringman, an $800 open-source room scale gripper robot (neufangled.com)

Super smart but it's one of those ideas that hopefully gives someone else in this space another idea that leads to something that could mass scale and I would buy. Love the ingenuity though.

It's an interesting concept, but I think I'll hold out for the full-body humanoid version.

There is an undeniable allure to the idea of a bipedal chassis realizing I'm an inefficient drain on corporate resources, then stabbing me to death while I sleep due to a minor Terms of Service violation.

I love the ingenuity, though it's all fun and games until someone or something manages to yank down on one of the cables...

Very clever - and I love "tension is all you need"

It's all fun and games until you walk into the room and get hit by a tightening rope
