Comment Leg Motion Blues (Score 1) 268

I've watched the movie several times now, and one thing most certainly sticks out. Notice how the legs work in caddycorner pairs. The front passenger side and rear driver side *always* pick up at the same time, as do the opposite pair. I bet that if the software were made more robust, one could give it a stabilityspeed setting that sets the duty cycle for 3 foot and 2 foot time, although I doubt this robot would ever fully leave the ground like a real horse can. Even better though, I bet this baby can be scaled up and haul some major storm tr.. err.. ground forces. Even better, I bet NASA could retrofit these babies with RTG (Plutonium heat battery, eh?) power sources and use them to explore the planets of remote solar-systems.
