Those of you who have studied Strandbeest are familiar with how these magnificent wind powered machines move. The WANDER-Bot is a robot based on this type of wind powered mechanism. These robots don’t need batteries or complex electronics. They show you how wind power can be converted into motion. These robots can be used in challenging areas like remote deserts and planetary surface.
The above video shows this robot in action. As they researchers explain, the project currently doesn’t present a finished solution.
