 | Modular Snake Robots Snake robots can use their many internal degrees of freedom to thread through tightly packed volumes and access locations that people and machinery otherwise cannot. These highly articulated devices can coordinate their internal degrees of freedom to perform a variety of locomotive gaits that go beyond the capabilities of conventional wheeled and legged robots. The true power of these devices is their versatility; they can crawl, climb, swim, and scale flights of stairs. Copyright 2008 Biorobotics Lab, Carnegie Mellon University.

 | Puppy Vs. Robot! Epic Battle For Territorial Domination! This is the robot: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000OF50M4?ie=UTF8&tag=demonbaby-20&linkCode=xm2&camp=1789&creativeASIN=B000OF50M4 When I brought home a Roboquad robot the other day and started playing with it, our resident guardian K9 was none too pleased. I decided to put Roboquad in "autonomous" mode, set his aggression level to high, and let the battle unfold. From http://www.demonbaby.com Note: The robot is acting fully on its own, I was not controlling it in any way. |
