eatART's Titanoboa takes a trip around CES 2013 video

Looks like the Mondo Spider isn’t alone in this world, after all. Turns out the folks over at eatART have designed him a robotic reptilian friend. We got a quick demo of the truly awe-inspiring Titanoboa, a 50-foot snake with a giant opening jaw. The serpent came into being last year, and while it isn’t quite ready done, it’s at least finished enough to slither the Los Vegas Convention Center parking lot, just outside of our trailer. Future updates should help old Titanboa with its sidewinding dreams. Check out its current state after the break.

eatART’s Mondo Spider cruises around CES 2013 (video)

Posted in: Today's Chili

It’s sort of like Burning Man meets CES, meets a giant rideable robotic spider. eatART’s eight-legged, 1,600 metal arachnid made the trip from Vancouver in order to cruise around the grounds of the Las Vegas Convention Center — and thankfully we had a great view from our CES trailer. The big bug has been kicking around since 2006, but this is its first trip to the Consumer Electronic Show. We’d tell you more, but it’s probably best to just watch the thing in action after the break.
