We have been wondering about what a Robo-one champion does in the off-season. Lem at A Robot’s Dreams has brought us the answer: they go skiing! Click here to see the video.This is quite inspiring. Now to find some skis in my Robosapien’s size.
It is inspiring. I’m constantly surprised by some of the stunts the Robo-One guys come up with for the robots. The new Pirkus R Type-2 only has 8 degrees of freedom, but it can still do most of the kung fu type moves, including flips.
Actually, I’m a little surprised and disappointed that the Robosapien folks don’t seem to attempt more. I’m sure the V1 and V2 are capable of much more than we’ve seen out of them so far.
Many thanks for the post and link.
