Kuratas is a rideable and user-operated mecha built by the Japanese company Suidobashi Heavy Industry. Billed as "the world's first giant boarding robot",[1] the Kuratas was unveiled when the website was opened in 2012.[1] It was demonstrated at Wonder Festival.[2] In June 2015, MegaBots challenged Suidobashi Heavy Industry to its first robot duel confronting Kuratas versus their Mark II.[3]
