This Is A Sign Of The End Of Days



You stupid scientist always assume that IF you can make something that you SHOULD make it. This is a perfect example of that. It's a combination of SKYNET and the abomination that is the octopus. All you will learn is how to be killed more efficiently when your tentacle robot turns on you - and they WILL turn on you.

The gripper consists of a soft silicone structure, which can be pneumatically controlled. If compressed air is applied to it, the tentacle bends inwards and can wrap around the respective item being gripped in a form-fitting and gentle manner. Just as with its natural model, two rows of suction cups are arranged on the inside of the silicone tentacle. Whilst the small suction cups on the end of the gripper work passively, a vacuum can be applied to the larger suction cups, by means of which the object adheres securely to the gripper. This means that the OctopusGripper can pick up and hold a variety of different shapes.

Pick up and hold a variety of different shapes like a baby's skull, perhaps?

Wonder how many assistants had their throats crushed and were thrashed about the lab before they had enough footage for the 3 minute clip? "Oh sweet Christ! Not again!!"

They have one guy for that...they just use him over and over until death then they hire a new guy.

You make it sound like I would ever drop my bong even without fingers.

I stand corrected.
