In the report of Theverge, Bezos the fifth richest man in the world who is also engaged in space rockets' manufacture shows off what the 13-foot-tall mech robot can do. Using the dual joysticks, the billionaire-entrepreneur slipped into and piloted the bot. While waving the bot's arms, the Amazon's CEO had fun and thanked Soth Korea's Hankook Mirae for the technology.

It was back in December that the mech robot technology was unveiled and shown in a video promotional clip. At first LiveScience did not even believed of the existence or even the capacity of the "Humanoid". On March 19 at the MARS conference, the mech robot was featured, although it has limitations on its movements because it is still tethered to the ceiling. Except for the arms movement, the robot also showed off some steps.


The "Humanoid", which takes after the Hankook Mirae Technology known as Method-2 when it was featured online paved way for making the blockbuster and cartoon movies into a reality. There are other robots featured like the Avatar's bipedal robots and the Transformers.

It is just a matter of time and the functional robots become a reality. For continuing update on Bezo's giant mech robot - Method 2, stay tuned to Telegiz.
