Whegs! They've got wheels... with legs! You can watch a great intro video here -- 35 megs might take some people a while to download, but it's worth every minute. Here are some shorter clips you should like:
They run! They climb! They jump! They fly! Sometimes they don't fly! ![]() Now before someone removes my post, let me stress that this is relevant to FIRST. As Dean said at the kickoff, "stair climbing is hard." Whegs can "surmount obstacles significantly greater than the radius of the whegs - a difficult feat for wheeled vehicles." Natural connections present themselves... If you actually put whegs on your bot, please post photos! Video would be even cooler. I love the way these things move! ![]() (Paul McCartney cuts in: "Something in the way she moves... attracts me like no other lover... Something in the way she mo-o-o-oves me...") ~Aaron Last edited by Mercutio : 13-01-2004 at 17:32. |
