Longtime readers of this site know I'm a robo-phobe, and "Relentless headless dog robot spells doom for human race" was the title of an earlier entry I wrote on the Big Dog, a pack-mule robot with a creepily efficacious way of walking. Now creator Boston Dynamics is at it again, minus two legs, with this creepy headless humanoid:

Disturbingly named Petman, the thing even walks like a man, contacting with the heel and pushing off with the toe. And it balances like a man.

But it is not a man. It is an abomination.
