That said, I have my own doubts about the cat actually controlling the buggy - the movements seemed too sure...and the phrase "herding cats" is used to describe a chaotic situation with good reason!]]>Dec 19th 2005 1:24AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2005/08/16/elvis-the-robocat/http://www.engadget.com/2005/08/16/elvis-the-robocat/Dec 19th 2005 1:24AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2005/08/16/elvis-the-robocat/http://www.engadget.com/2005/08/16/elvis-the-robocat/Dec 19th 2005 1:24AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2005/08/16/elvis-the-robocat/http://www.engadget.com/2005/08/16/elvis-the-robocat/

It must have been driving the truck that caused the accident judging by what I saw.

What a stupid idea. Why not put the cat in a box, strap it to a skateboard and push it into traffic. That would be more fun to watch.]]>Dec 19th 2005 1:24AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2005/08/16/elvis-the-robocat/http://www.engadget.com/2005/08/16/elvis-the-robocat/
The cat is obviously spinning in circles because it's trying to chase it's tail. Err, antenna.

And plus, it gets to think outside of the box.]]>Dec 19th 2005 1:24AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2005/08/16/elvis-the-robocat/http://www.engadget.com/2005/08/16/elvis-the-robocat/Dec 19th 2005 1:24AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2005/08/16/elvis-the-robocat/http://www.engadget.com/2005/08/16/elvis-the-robocat/as you can read on this forum here: http://advancedrobotcombat.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=10803&sid=4eaad709be8b6b2946b6a791170539fd]]>Dec 19th 2005 1:24AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2005/08/16/elvis-the-robocat/http://www.engadget.com/2005/08/16/elvis-the-robocat/Dec 19th 2005 1:24AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2005/08/16/elvis-the-robocat/http://www.engadget.com/2005/08/16/elvis-the-robocat/Dec 19th 2005 1:24AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2005/08/16/elvis-the-robocat/http://www.engadget.com/2005/08/16/elvis-the-robocat/Dec 19th 2005 1:24AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2005/08/16/elvis-the-robocat/http://www.engadget.com/2005/08/16/elvis-the-robocat/
Now the video of the guy getting pulled over for drunk driving and dancing with the lady cop is widely reported as real all over the internet, but that one is in fact a comedy piece from Comedy Central's own Reno 911...

I BELIEVE IN THE ROBOT CAT!!!]]>Dec 19th 2005 1:24AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2005/08/16/elvis-the-robocat/http://www.engadget.com/2005/08/16/elvis-the-robocat/Dec 19th 2005 1:24AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2005/08/16/elvis-the-robocat/http://www.engadget.com/2005/08/16/elvis-the-robocat/Dec 19th 2005 1:24AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2005/08/16/elvis-the-robocat/http://www.engadget.com/2005/08/16/elvis-the-robocat/Dec 19th 2005 1:24AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2005/08/16/elvis-the-robocat/http://www.engadget.com/2005/08/16/elvis-the-robocat/

There are even whelchairs out there, but puting a cat into a box thats moving around is... well stupid, because it does NOT recognize what's hapening and it does NOT know that there are other ways to move. A cat need's to touch it's inviroment, and for this cat the inviroment is thee box because it is not even opened.]]>Dec 19th 2005 1:24AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2005/08/16/elvis-the-robocat/http://www.engadget.com/2005/08/16/elvis-the-robocat/Dec 19th 2005 1:24AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2005/08/16/elvis-the-robocat/http://www.engadget.com/2005/08/16/elvis-the-robocat/Dec 19th 2005 1:24AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2005/08/16/elvis-the-robocat/http://www.engadget.com/2005/08/16/elvis-the-robocat/Dec 19th 2005 1:24AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2005/08/16/elvis-the-robocat/http://www.engadget.com/2005/08/16/elvis-the-robocat/
your response is either very funny or very sad. i'm not entirely sure which.]]>Dec 19th 2005 1:24AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2005/08/16/elvis-the-robocat/http://www.engadget.com/2005/08/16/elvis-the-robocat/
