These Bots Were Made For Walkin'
As this guy says, "walking" robots aren't really big shakes now. But he points out that previous "walkers" were following a pre-programmed route, unable to balance on the fly as they encountered surfaces they hadn't been specifically programmed to navigate.
This one balances dynamically, and so could just walk wherever he likes. Um, as long as it's not too tricky.
And assuming he's got an hour or so to cover 100 feet.
We're getting there, though.
Thanks to George.
And thanks to Sinistar for the headline.
