Robopet Walking Video
Lem Fugitt has done it again with a really great video of the Robopet's walking gaits. If you have been wondering how well the Robopet gets around then this is the video for you. Being the technical guy that he is, he actually explains how the Robopet manages to walk. He points out that the Robopet takes advantage it's rocking motion to move; a trait common to all of Mark Tilden's current robots. He also gives an interesting breakdown of how the Robopet manages to turn using different movements for its front and back legs; with all of this being done without any knees! Take a look at his blog page and then watch the video, "My Puppy Has No Knees!".
