Flic-flac In the sea of dunes of northern Sahara, the Moroccan flic-flac spider can more than double its walking speed when provoked, rolling like a wheel and somersaulting like a. In fiction, the robots traveled fast over level terrain as wheels, and then stabilized into legged gun platforms once in combat. In rolling mode, the BionicWheelBot does a somersault with its whole body, just like the real flic-flac spider.

Outside of fiction, the dual-modes of a rolling robot suggest patrols or inspections, a machine that can speed along intact roads to where it needs to go and then, once there, walk over any rubble or rough terrain to scout the area. Wheeled vehicles often get stuck on anything other than a smooth surface, and tracked machines can be slow, so rolling into action and then climbing over, say, the new debris from an explosion would mean the robot can be in place fast and surmount obstacles that would delay or hinder other robots.įesto is not in the business of designing biomimetic robots for military use, so it’s likely up to someone else to figure out if a rolling walking spider scout bot is the kind of tool troops might want to take into the field. If they decide against the wheeling spiders, there are still plenty of other robotic companions available.
