The Evolution of the Acrobat Robot: Disney Imagineers Invent Stuntronics Technology

Imagineers developed Stuntronics technology to enable superhuman flight through the thoughtful and innovative application of technology. This project combines advanced robotics with the exploration of untethered dynamic movement to create realistic aerial stunts that would be humanly impossible.

Glad to have seen what Grant Imahara worked on come to fruition.

No doubt, I'm sorry that he died last year, RIP. I still have his "Kickin' Bot" book, awesome read.☺️👍

I feel like anyone interested in this technology has seen all of these same clips several times by now. Surely there’s other footage to show off..

[@MapedMod]

6 years since these been recorded and still no update.

[@scooda]

@@MapedMod I mean, the technology’s being used in a park right now. That’s about as much of an update as you could ask for…

[@MapedMod]

@@scooda not really an update since there is no footage

[@scooda]

@@MapedMod like, footage of a stuntronic being used in a park..?

hello from a french fan !!!!

[@dougmurray42]

Disney thanked them for their good work by force transferring them to Florida. Oh, not force, just if they wanted to remain employed. Inland Empire was available if it was just about reducing costs and having bigger premises. No, this was about making imagineers self select themselves out of Disney's workforce. Stealth layoff.

Damn, fr? Anywhere I can read more about this? Feel like if I look up "Disney stealth layoff" I'm gonna get a billion results blending together

"Stuntronics" is an ok name, but I really feel like they should've called it "acrobotics" lol

Gentiles learn from robots and not God

[@samuelludke1420]

For what price you pay in the parks, the animatronics better look good......

[@JasonRasmussen]

No longer to be made in California.

Robots are gentiles Gods and religion....smiling
