Festo’s Spider Inspired BionicWheelBot @roboweek #NationalRoboticsWeek #RoboWeek
We thoroughly enjoyed watching this robot move around, particularly toward the end of this video from FestoHQ on YouTube:
Like its biological model, the flic-flac spider, the BionicWheelBot can both walk and roll. Together with its discoverer, Professor Ingo Rechenberg, the Festo bionics team has used these unique movement patterns and turned them into a technical masterpiece for the Hannover Messe 2018.
