Pretty cool.
But I bet it would work even better off road where it could get better traction

Didn't look like it would work well on anything except perfectly level ground.
Political correctness is a doctrine fostered by a delusional, illogical, liberal minority and rabidly promoted by an unscrupulous mainstream media, which holds forth the proposition that it is entirely possible to pick up a turd by the clean end.

I dont know, looked like it would only need an increase in hydralic pressure and some claws on its feet and it might do alright on uneven ground and slight inclines.  Would also probably depend on the strength of the steel or aluminum he used in the construction.   I could see applications for this for use on the moon or mars, would just need to replace the diesel engine with an electric motor.

WOW

I'm voting for this next time they decide to add a new craft to AH!

20mm hispanos on that?  Sounds good to me!

thats amazing!

I'll bet if they put some kind of hard rubber pads, like parts of a tire on the bottom of those feet it would move even better.
I don't know what to put here yet.

It would be interesting if they could use it for exploration like on Mars or some other planet...

Between this and that walking paintball robot someone made in Japan we're getting wonderfully close to mechwarrior.  I can't wait to pilot that!

Though I can never seriously say 'wonderfully' about the development of weapons systems.  People said that about machine guns and nuclear warheads.

The big question is: can it merge in rush hour traffic...or the better question...can it even turn at all.
