Meet RC1007, better known as StickBoy: a robot drummer with four arms, built by Frank Barnes of Robocross in Berlin, Germany. StickBoy's arms plus its two legs and mohawk head are powered by compressed air. The robot plays on a 14-piece Pearl drum set with double bass pedals.Sure, as long as it needs four arms to play a imple punkrock song, we're quite safe from the robopocalypse with machines taking over the world. Still, Stickboy rocks pretty darn hard for a diy robot, don't you agree? We wonder how long it will take before groove masters like Brad Wilk, Bill Ward or Vinnie Paul (real name: Vincent Abbott) get serious competition from robot drummers...
