Re: Walking robot

walking bots are great to get over and across most obsticles, like they would have made short work of gettin up the platforms in this years game, but the problem is balence, especially with a biped. I did a project on it once and unless its doing the toy up robot bounce its runs into a lot of problems. I think the best way of going by it is useing a gyroscope to help it out, like the good ole segway. I think it would be cool to see a competition down the road in which we see several of them.
