The design looks like an inefficient model of Theo Jenson's creations...

Can you at least give that man a little credit?

@lastingpain22

and you better inform yourself before posting some stupid nonsence: this is not the Theo Jansen mechanism, it is called the Klaan mechanism, and i never pretended to have invented it. If you think it is inefficient, then build something better but i think you are not able to.

And i give credit to all the people (and this includes Mr. Theo Jansen) which keep inspiring me (and you are definitely not part of them)

Keep on posting your very "constructive" and "reflected" comments ...

Have you posted the build instructions anywhere?

[carpenoctem1973]

Yes it is.

iv built a robot like this when i was 10 but it only had 4 legs and could only move forwards and vackwards but it worked in the same way

[vikaskarade]

@lastingpain22 Well, its a Klaan linkage. Yes, its inefficient and always have slip on the feet, But this is the best mechanism in terms of resource usage.
