I saw the other day, im hyped as a big Evangelion fan and hope the japanese win. The japanese are the best when it comes to robotics and aesthetics of the robots, but americans may win by brute force by creating some mess with big guns. We'll see how it goe.s

I guess Japan will win and no doubt about it. But I think it will be a innovation in their army. They could change their human army to robots. Actually I'm curious why they need to make a robot for the duel, instead of for helping human to work.

Well, it's not like these robots are quite that "army ready", yet. Wink

For now, at least, this is probably more of a show, or promotional stunt if you will, rather than a serious fight. But, who knows - maybe it will help spur development in the area.

Last month, the American robot maker company MegaBots challenged the Japanese Suidobashi Heavy Industry to a giant robot duel - which the Japanese company accepted a few days ago, though, instead of a gun battle, the CEO of the Japanese company proposed: "If we’re gonna win this, I want to punch them and scrap them down to do it".

The challenge: https://youtu.be/XVJTGLL2SnI - "Suidobashi, we have a giant robot. You have a giant robot. You know what needs to happen: We challenge you to a duel."
The answer: https://youtu.be/7u8mheM2Hrg - "My reaction? Come on guys, make it cooler," he said. "Just building something huge and sticking guns on it. It’s … super American."

So, who is going to win this battle? America? Japan? Or will they both collapse into worthless piles of metal before the fight? Tongue
