blob

"The Blob is a shape-shifting conformal robot that resembles a tank tread without the tank. This video shows the pneumatic version built by Geo Homsy, then some simulations done by Jerry Pratt. The two simulated blobs show how a genetic algorithm can effectively chose either the most efficient or the fastest "gait". Finally, an electric version of the blob built by Andrew Allen is shown. Able to control its joints smoothly, this blob is shown executing the efficient gait ."
