What happens when you put together a robot and a spider? You get Mantis, a giant robotic spider that can crush anything in its path. And if you’re afraid of spiders, then this robotic machine resembling a spider will be your worst nightmare.
Mantis is regarded to be the world’s largest all terrain operational hexapod. Which means that it’s a fully functioning robotic spider that not only walks on six legs and weighs two tons, but also stands at nine feet tall with the ability to stomp its way through anything.
If you’re impressed by Mantis, it is readily available to make an appearance at your next event.
