Turning a badass menacing robot who once started a fight with a drunk guy into the new children's entertainment.

I see nothing but FEAR among the faces of the audience for Titan. And so there should be.

I saw Titan years ago and he's brilliant but I was terrified of him haha. I didn't know what to expect at the start but as soon as he lit up and stepped off the back of that cart I was off. There were kids that were only up to his knees and they just stood there, meanwhile me, the adult, was trying to climb the nearest tree to escape 😂 When he looks at you and marches straight over it's really intimidating.

Titan the robot is the stage name of a costume[1][2] created by Cyberstein Robots Ltd. in 2004,[3] It is plastic costume worn by a human performer, not a powered exoskeleton. The robot costume is approximately 2.4 m (7.9 ft) tall and 60 kg (9.4 st)[1] and increases to 350 kg (55 st)[1] including the cart it rides on and onboard equipment. The face resembles a skull, and some have even compared it to a Transformer. It was designed by Nik Fielding, who runs Cyberstein from Newquay, Cornwall, England.[2] Titan has performed at a variety of public and private events, such as the Commonwealth Games, bar Mitzvahs[1] shopping centres, [4] television fund raisers and live concerts.[3]

For those questioning if this robot is "real" or not, look up Boston Dynamics. They're a united states military-funded organization designing robots for emergency response. Atlas, their most recent project, can barely walk and right itself, let alone make wild, fluid hand gestures and joke. If a cutting-edge military robot can't even walk more than 5 mph, what makes you think an entertainment robot can?

The "suit" is an 8 foot tall machine that is worn by an actor and controlled partially through body movement and partially through remote control. The actor inside is standing on several inches of lift boots but his legs do extend through most of the suits legs. The outer portion around the hips and the hinge joints is wider than the actor and serves to make it appear robotic. But the legs are completely human powered which is why it is capable of such precision and fluid movement. The actors upper body, including head and arms are inside of the suits "chest" area. There is a visible mirror on the front of the chest which is where the actor can see out, much like the mirrored visor on a helmet. The suits shoulders, arms and head are above the actors real head (and reach a height of 8 feet). This upper portion of the suit is a remote controlled machine. The actor inside has a control panel inside the chest which allows him to pilot the upper portion of the suit. Most of the actions and sounds are prerecorded gestures which are simply triggered in sequence by selecting the proper commands. The actor also has a voice modulator which allows him to speak during performances. In addition the remote controls can also be taken over by his assistants which are watching from a distance in case of any danger or threat that needs response which the actor can not see (for example if a child wanders in range of a movement from the suit which the actor cannot see to his side or behind him, the assistants can override his movement and try to prevent harm to the child). During performances there is also usually in-character security (men in black suits) that are used not only to add to the mystery of the presentation but to keep people from tampering with the panels and latches that keep the suit from opening up and revealing the person inside.

And this is how it begun.... humans started using robots as sideshows for kids, making them "entertainment", next thing we know, they revolt and the machine takes over, destroying all humans.
