Theo Jansen - Vex style

Vex has produced a Theo Jansen walker kit. Click image for more details.

Added the video found by Rik.

I feel that the body should kind of rise and fall with each step. This one just seems to glide like a (roller)skater.

Finally catching on!

The crank shaft goes higher than the main pivot!

Will they ever learn?

Thanks for posting Mike.
