Survival Research Labs meets Star Wars in the "Crusher," which the AP calls a new "6.5-ton, six-wheeled robotic vehicle designed to negotiate harsh terrain" being developed at Carnegie Mellon for the Army.
There would be something creepy about this if it didn't point to a future form of warfare waged by robots against robots. Until, of course, the robots develop sentience -- as any sci-fi fan knows they will -- and inevitably turn pitilessly on their masters!
Hello, Dave.
Postscript: The previously linked AP story is gone, so here's a new item on the Crusher.
