Mark II (robot)

Mark II is a rideable and user-operated robot built by the American company MegaBots Inc. The robot is scheduled to engage in a head-to-head fight with Kuratas, a robot built by Suidobashi Heavy Industry of Japan. Mark II made its debut in May 2015 at Maker Faire San Mateo.[1][2][3] In August 2015, MegaBots announced plans to upgrade Mark II with melee capabilities in order to confront Kuratas, using funds from a Kickstarter campaign.[4][5][6]
