Cockroaches should be one of the most hated in the world beings. Now, a designer and developer of robots has been inspired by cockroaches to give life to his new creation, known as VELOCIRoACH.
Haldane Duncan Young wanted to try the benefits of creating mechanical beings really inspired beings. The result was a robot that is the quickest to date always in relation to the speed-size. Weighing only 30 grams and measuring 10 inches long, the VELOCIRoACH is able to achieve speeds of up to about 2.6 meters per second.
The key to the robot as fast is in the design of its legs, which mimic an actual cockroach, which makes them into contact with the ground 15 times in just one second. Besides that, this looks like a real little cockroach when to dodge obstacles to escape a shoe question.
As we find on YouTube a video of VELOCIRoACH I hang around here.
