  • slick.

  • its dutch and some dutch inventions turned out great look at the variable gear from daf eindhoven still used for mopeds and the delta works in the state of sealand in the netherlands and when it turns you need to do the same thing as on a combat tank turn the tracks individualy from each other or one backwards and one forwards but then you need to deal with alot of twisting force on a large scale version which can demolish the structure but they will find a sulotion for that

  • it can turn maybe if the legs on one side slows while the other doesnt.

  • why does everything have to have a "point" with you people?? it's just a brilliant conceptual design, nothing more. of course it serves no purpose yet, but can't you at least appreciate it as a work of art? JESUS CHRIST!

  • amen dude. i mean was there any point when the right bros made the first working plane? not at the time but it sure as hell helped in the long run!

  • right.... lol... da vinci`s airplane design was total failure and nowadays his proyect is of graet use... think of this as a non present use but for the future mind

  • holy shit its made out of an egg carton?

  • you could turn it if you could make 6 of the legs on one side go faster than the other 6. its just a matter of controlling individualy sets of legs

  • The mechanism itself is beautifully simple. Two right angled isosceles triangle linkes with two linkages, with to further linkages from the top and bottom of the triangles connecting to the camshaft. You can see the essence by putting this

    watch?v=CufN43By79s

  • yeah, the guy walking along with it is powering it by cranking a little wire thing..
