It's mainly a lack of money and interest, really. Human-sized robots are advanced enough to fight eachother like this, but they're too expensive for private builders to make them and the companies who design them don't see the appeal in it. Also, Asimo and other large robots are tall enough to be damaged if they are knocked over. The robots shown here are too small to break from falling over. There are already robot soccer tournaments with human-size divisions, though. So, it might not be long before the weight classes for fighting tournaments increase, as well.
@@spike1670 MEGABOTS, yeah. There were a lot of people building robots for that, and I don't think it was specifically to collab with them in particular. But MEGABOTS themselves filed for bancruptcy a few years back iirc, and I haven't seen anything from the others since. That said, robots of that kind are still being developed - just for industrial purposes instead. Take a look at Archax, if you're interested. It's essentially a scaled-down spiritual successor to Kuratas, the Japanese entry in the MEGABOTS pilot episode, and it's nothing short of amazing. Going back on subject, yeah, I think small robots are the way to go. Less cost means more competitors, means more money, means better technology. Tech science 101. Personally, I think servo power has reached a point where a 10kg class, or similar, could be a fully viable class for these kinds of competitions. I'm certain it'll happen, sooner than later. As for when? Only one way to tell.
cuando los movimientos programados comiencen a ser mas rapidos se volvera muy entretenido incluso me atrevere a decir que es el futuro del box
Samurai bot didn't bow, how disrespectful
De aquí a nada, box bots.
Pero mientras tanto, pasos de baile a miniatura
why not make boxers like asimo
