TSA compensated by adding procedures. There’s a shoe bomber and you have to take your shoes off; liquid explosives arrived, and TSA had to limit liquids and gels.”
Hyundai has kicked-off production on novel 4×4 vehicles with robotic legs
They may be the only cars to go more viral than Cybertruck.
Remember that Hyundai concept 4×4 with robotic legs?
The South Korean automotive giant actually means to make it a reality and it has announced a development and test facility in Montana for that very purpose.
Hyundai has a planned investment goal of $20 million over the next five years for its New Horizons Studio, which will employ 50 people.
It will be located in Montana State University’s Innovation Campus in Bozeman, Montana and it will be a unit focused on the development of Ultimate Mobility Vehicles\.
