Robot to Challenge Rossi Next Year

[Penderic]

"Yamaha unveiled the Motobot at the Tokyo Motor Show near the end of last year as a test bed designed to help with the creation of rider safety technology, and has stated that the robot is being developed to beat Rossi."

Self driving cars, truck, and now bikes! Humans get outa the way! Hope the robots have insurance.

I like the idea that the Yamaha bike is still standard. Once the Robot Rider software is common the actuators will be built-in and not at all human friendly.



You can get a robot to ride yourself.




  Did you know early robot riders on real race horses were banned long ago....



But nowadays you can still find them made, strangely enough ...



for modern camel races...
