Crawler robot video (VIDEO)
Caption
A crawling robot whose actuators passively synchronize moving forward and is able to sense the end of the terrain, preventing falling off and damage. The robot actuators, sensor, and safety switch are all identical units that are only wired and arranged differently. This is an example of embodying decision making within the robot body without the need for external electronic controllers. Credit: Antonio Forte and Mostafa Mousa.
