coolest (or scariest?) Linux robot ever | Handle With Linux

coolest (or scariest?) Linux robot ever

Posted March 21st, 2010 by cool

Watch this, if this isn't the coolest Linux device ever, you tell me what is:

Imagine this thing creeping up on you from behind.

The Halluc II is a remote controlled robotic vehicle with 8 legs/wheels. It's designed to walk/drive over rugged terrain an can actually transform from walking to driving robot.

It has 3 different movement modes: vehicle, animal, and insect.

Remote controlled true a video projection dome, makes it feel like you are inside the robot:

the Halluc-II takes its inspiration from an extinct creature from millions of years ago (but it may make you think of a cockroach,probably family;-).

Watch this video to see it transform from drive to walk:
