I stumbled upon this a while ago:



Though it was pretty interesting, although I'm still trying to figure out what use a skiing robot could possibly have.

Thoughts? Suggestions?

Discuss.

either hook it up with a stable cam and have it do sick follow shots, or have it test jumps. with the processors and computers it has on board, it will be able to give you a pretty good guess as to how fast, how much pop, etc you will need to make the gap. And if it had a stable cam hooked to the side, my guess is that it could get some pretty smooth and sweet follow shots, and be able to repeat the exact same route as the run before consistently. If you had that, you could get some dope ass overlays. pretty sweet.
