Bipedal Robot Based On Troodon Dinosaur. We’re Dead. Totally Screwed.
December 2nd, 2008
I have seen the face of human death and mass carnage. It walks upright and takes the form of a dinosaur. We are all screwed beyond belief. I’m building a bunker.
Peter Dilworth from MIT’s Leg Lab has constructed this killer bipedal walking robot based on a Troodon dinosaur.
It was for the robot to stand up from a sitting position, to walk and possibly run, go back to walking and stop and then sit down and be stable, and not fall over in any phase. It has proven extremely difficult to make bipedal robots. People assume that flight is hard to do while walking is easy; actually it’s the reverse.
