  • arre you trying to build Wall-e wtf is that gonna help with anything

  • check on mine for leged robot beter than nasa one can pass trought the doorway!

  • @petermcwen Perhaps it would, though we must awe at the significance of its movement. What I find amazing, not the fact that its robotics, but the fact that we've come so far as to being able to manipulate materials to personate movement like ourselves, wether it be slow or not, we're getting there.

  • They only need this thing to move quicker and you have a handy beer platform following you around on a hiking trip.

  • Expensive bed.

  • it would never get stuck.

  • I wouldn't call this a robot.  More like a vehicle with wheels going up a hill : /

  • but will it blend??

  • @CaTnDawG1 Are you inbred? Or did you mother drop you on your head?

  • just send a landrover up durrr
