i just realized that this looks like a floppy drive on legs :)

Looks like an AT ST, those Ewoks won’t know what hit them! *pew* *pew*

He should increase the height of the robot so it doesn’t to bend so much to the sides in order to keep his center of gravity.

This thing is pretty cool

I want to see a small army of these playing a soccer match!

This is nine different kinds of awesome.

It’s Baby ED-209!

He also has a ‘dancing’ video of the bot. There are better closeups of it in that vid starting at about 0:46

This is so going on my birthday request form.

I feel like he would be even more effective if given better grip. like if he was put on a carpet.

Yep thats a great baby AT-ST, if he’ed just lay off the booze so he could walk straight he’ed be perfect.

ED209 meets batterys not included!

@The Ideanator- thats exactly what i was thinking. it would be best to mount low because any weight on top would screw up the bot.
but a little camera, mounted on servo/hinge rig so you can aim it with a joystick, and a blu-ray burning laser hack. all mounted at the robot’s ‘crotch’ area. to keep the center of gravity from being too high and maintain the balance.
best hack i’ve seen in at least a month :D

I want one!

In quantity this thing would come in around fifty bucks in cost.

The legs always appear to stay parallel while walking. So, he could ditch the fixed connections between the top servos and the body in favor of hinges where the axis runs forward and backward. That way, the top platform would stay horizontal.

Reminds me of one of the units from C&C tiberium sun. lol
