Why do they look mocap and not robotic? Like if it’s a robot, the movements should be far more efficient and literally robotic looking. This just looks like “look, we can make them execute scripted macro movements with micro auto adjustments”. Which is an achievement in itself, but not exactly as advanced as this video suggests at face value. I could be wrong, but something about it feels off to me and this is just my guess as to why.
because that’s what this is.
Premade animations choreographed and scripted.
BUT
Do you have any idea what insane technology in soft and hardware is neccessary to make this happen?
this is beyond impressive, and China is way ahead of everyone else.
Electric cars, Robotics, Renewable energy, medical research, Drone technology.
The west needs to get rid of the incompetent conservatives that cling to a world that no longer exists or the west is the new third world.
Yeah, don’t compare them to the ideal in your head. Compare them to the best their competitors have put out there.
You know, like the assholes here in the US that would just have humans remote control them from the next room to get worse results. And yeah of course China can lie and fake shit too, but I think this would probably be just as impressive if they were all mimicking the movements of a mocap-suited athlete off stage.
