Researchers from several universities will focus on RHex, a short, six-legged robot that scampers like a ****roach, as a working model of the principles they're seeking to uncover. By tweaking the robot and using it as a physical model, they hope to tease apart the complex neural and muscular networks in insects." http://slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=04/09/16/2238255 |
