Toyota has developed a new robotic leg that can do something that half of America probably has trouble doing, jump 1.6-inches. The leg can jump and stay stable on its own and that’s a big deal. Having the ability to jump means that future robots will be able to run smoother, and hopefully jump higher than they have been able to in the past. It’s only a matter of time before our future robot overlords have the means to oppress us. Only a matter of time….

Looks like our future robot overlords will start the enslavement of humanity at the World Cup (once they get the kicking down).
