Title: Wall-Climbing Robot
Post by: robot321 on May 02, 2007, 11:46:24 AM
Robo action: A new Carnegie Mellon University (CMU) robot scales a smooth wall and then an inverted surface. Although tethered in this video, the robot is able to climb completely untethered, the CMU researchers claim.

Very nice... I like the design of the feet. I don't think I would have though of that.
