I came accross this yesterday and i was very interested since i want to do military robotics when i get out of college. The company is selling robots to the military made from off the shelf RC parts for $8,000. Their was also a armless one priced at $1,000. I figured i would pass this on and see if anyone else has heard of any other cool military robotics programs.
