Robotic Application

FuRo robotics, a Japanese technology company, took inspiration from the Hallucigenia's unique anatomy in designing their Hallucigenia-I and Halluc-II concept vehicles. Working prototypes of these vehicles, which have 8 wheels on the end of 8 robotic appendages, can move in any direction and can climb over uneven terrain.

Famous quotes containing the word application:

    We will not be imposed upon by this vast application of forces. We believe that most things will have to be accomplished still by the application called Industry. We are rather pleased, after all, to consider the small private, but both constant and accumulated, force which stands behind every spade in the field. This it is that makes the valleys shine, and the deserts really bloom.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
