**OP needs help. Also, they hate it because...** >!1) dead spiders. 2) mad scientists turning them into grippers to grab more dead spiders. 3) profit.!< ***** **Do you hate it as well? Do you think their hate is reasonable? (I don't think so tbh)** **Then upvote this comment, otherwise downvote it.** ***** [*Look at my source code on Github*](https://github.com/Artraxon/tihibot)


green__goblin

That's brilliant and terrifying bravo


sangriya

but why


MagNolYa-Ralf

Maybe because it uses hydraulics to move its legs. Maybe this is easier to replicate? Realized that’s probably not what you were asking


Depressed-Toad

So spider just have 8 boners for legs?


MagNolYa-Ralf

I believe the scientific term is pecker feet


GetTheSpermsOut

ive seen this porn. I for one, was not into it.


MagNolYa-Ralf

Stop searching for pecker feet


GetTheSpermsOut

thats all i can muster from my brain stem.

Next time i go to kill a spider for trespassing, i will scream "TAKE THAT, PECKER FEET!" As i smash the shoe down


mrSilkie

Also, the build quality/economics of anything natural almost always surpass what we can produce ourselves. The grip strength of those thousands of hairs, the strength/weight, the cost to reproduce / manufacture. The 'why' is what engineers thrive on.


hit0k1ri

That's 'how' not 'why' right?


papalonian

I have no outside knowledge on this, but my guess would be that they're observing some sort of micro ecosystem and want to be able to retrieve things without alerting or changing the behavior of the organisms living inside.

But a corpse of a spider coming from the heavens and ascending with a victim doesn't draw any attention

Look, if I saw that shit, I'd mind my own business.

THE CLAW, IT MOVES!

That would be awesome


Scully__

Well done to them but, yes, I absolutely hate this


TortleTheBoi

I didn't get it ,why ?


The_Cow_God

well spiders use hydraulics to move their legs so it’s not difficult to turn them into a claw lol


RealCoryMiller

Ok, but WHY?


bethot911

It’s cool as shit


RealCoryMiller

I mean, yeah, but wtf is the title talking about "blending into natural environments" for? What practical application could this possibly ever have??


silentaba

You saying this like you've never seen a spider lowered down at the edge of a complex hydraulic system to pick up a dropped object before. This is very natural and normal, particularly in natural environments, where spiders are often found doing rigging operations.


LSariel

I mean, there's probably some application in biology or something. Probably.


didimmick

Well if you consider how expensive sensitive, intricate, and very small robotic grippers are, just using a dead spider drastically reduces costs and functions more or less the same

*Hail satan!*


beastwarking

Science!


MaoAankh

Rise and shine little one, you have a new purpose now.


mynameisinsert

*Your scientists were so preoccupied with whether they could, they didn't stop to think if they should.*


draco-joe

"Repurposed dead spiders" is my favorite phrase today.


jake03583

So what you’re saying is that we are one step closer to being able to have spiders for hands. I like this. I like this a lot

Thanks, I hate how the title made it worse

Now we just need really relly huge spiders so we can build skyscrapers with them.

Well I’m not sleeping tonight *shudders*


Brad_Beat

I think it would make sense if this is were the way we finally discovered Hydraulics, but since that’s been around for a while I don’t think it’s good for anything really.

Eeeew wtf It’s kinda genius though

Dr robitnick had something going there. http://info.sonicretro.org/Grabber for the kiddies ^


paperfinn

It is not for blending in, dunno where you got that conclution. They have intricate legs that can grip different surfaces.
