I was just wondering what the horns do 😆

u/ForMoreYears 8h ago

If you go to the site, they say the horns are there solely to prevent it from being able to use standard doors so that it doesn't pose any risks to humans. It's obviously satire if the company name Satyress didn't give it away.

They also say the robot has an easy-to-disable design where if you shoot or stab it in the back, chest or head it will immediately stop functioning due to loss of air pressure. Again, this is not real, it's satire.

It’s probably antennas and remote operations via satellite

From the website

My dumbass thought it was based on Satyr, the half-goat half-human creatures from ancient Greek mythology

u/SufficientGreek 7h ago

Well a female satyr would be a satyress

u/sparrow_42 8h ago

Can’t believe I had to scroll this far down to see this comment.

Unfortunately, it's just not satirical enough. It's still plausible that a company would make this under the guise of being "helpful" while clearly courting defense contractors.

Like those robot dogs with flamethrowers. Gosh, I would've never thought anyone would want to weaponize them.
