That’s pretty cool. It’s easy to get stuck in the “Well we have to make it walk like humans” mentality when in reality there’s probably lots of ways to “Walk” and move that are WAY better than bi-pedal human motion that robots can do that humans can’t.
Yeah, pretty neat. With all the methods of movement, ranges, task or environments used in robotics, it’s great to see someone mixing in something unique from the status quo.
