Brave Man Gets His Head Shaved By Robotic Sweeney Todd

In a publicity stunt to raise funds for cancer research, Intelligent Automation somehow convinced this poor guy to get his head shaved by its multi-arm unmanned ground vehicle. A proposition more terrifying than Sweeney Todd giving him a trim.

The company also concocted the stunt to show off the dexterity of its tri-armed articulated robot designed for remotely dealing with IEDs, handling tools and inspections. But as the razor duct-taped to the end of its arm clearly illustrate, cutting hair should be at the bottom of the feature list when IAI designs the brochure. [Automaton]
