Re: pic: Cow Feet Closeup.
If memory serves it works just like a locomotive: the wheels are joined by 4-bar linkages.
The funky edges are for engaging the copper mesh that was part of the playing surface on the ramps.

Re: pic: Cow Feet Closeup.
Several robot tops were mangled at the feet of that rotary walker design. It certainly knew how to climb things. I believe this robot was nicknamed "Goliath".
They slimmed the implementation of this design down over the last few years of its existence. It was last used in 2006. I think this 2003 robot is currently sitting in the front yard of the original designer's house. Maybe it serves as a burglar deterrent (or a planter, I'm not sure which).
