M4: Multi-Modal Mobility Morphobot

[@unksoldr]

Very useful in a tactical situation, drones get shot down when you hear them above you, this could get there. Switch to ground mode and creep around.

[@Loktis]

with this principle you may live to see man-made horrors beyond your comprehension

[@unksoldr]

@@Loktis compared to a human directly killing another human? Which is truly horrible?

[@brauljo]

@@unksoldr If the machine is more proficient, then the machine.

[@IAmThisFact]

This is some really cool technology put into a small robot RC car.

[@TheCebulon]

Very cool concept. Could be an advantage on Moon and Mars.

[@steamtractoramplifiers5434]

Aerial propellers on Moon and Mars? Don't think so.

[@tschexx]

@@steamtractoramplifiers5434 Ever heard of the Ingenuity helicopter?

[@vikassm]

This thing could be a lifesaver in Recon & Rescue missions!

[@chrisscala4221]

Rotor-wing aircraft require atmosphere. This concept MIGHT work on Mars (which has an atmosphere, albeit a thin one), but not on the Moon, which is essentially a vacuum.

[@brauljo]

@@chrisscala4221 The Ingenuity helicopter is already on Mars.

So you're telling me a shrimp fried this rice?

[@Joshzilla88]

Upscale it to full size vehicles. Give it arms and make it into a mech type suite transformer vehicle with one of those big parachutes for long distance travel

[@johnacetable7201]

Now insolate circuits and add two water bottles so it can swim.

[@techbarron7383]

can you make it,submersible drone too?

[@yekhantlu786]

It reminds me of Arkham Knight batmobile

[@balveersingh3051]

Is that path planning based on SLAM?

[@jamesbrownjr4756]

Very cool. Not nocking anything, but there is a better way😏. "From one thinker to another "

[@alanrallings9997]

UK company has patent pending 5 years

[@balveersingh3051]

Interesting

[@hermitcard4494]

Make it water proof so it can dive underwater. All terrain.

[@brauljo]

It needs more than waterproofing to function in water.

[@hassanarshad2687]

Hey do you have any experience with making drones capable of underwater maneuvering I need help with that! @@brauljo

[@brauljo]

@@hassanarshad2687 missed the part where's that's my problem

[@hassanarshad2687]

@@brauljo Obviously it's not but I am in dire need of consulting someone with the skills and until now I have found none only if you may help things would become easier for me, please let me know if by any means it is possible for you to help

I can easily see that getting stuck in a pile of rocks😂

[@TheNefastor]

So you're saying, this robot can do ten different things, but each one ten times worse than a dedicated robot. Meh.

[@vikassm]

That, my friend, is not the point. Not at all. It is a technology demonstration, and it is certainly useful for those who can see the value in it. There is a place for dedicated, narrow focus tools (vast majority). But there is also a small but highly profitable niche where multi-tools are preferable.

[@hermitcard4494]

I think going from car to flying drone was FASTER than half fly/half wheel modes to overcome terrain. The focus on "energy saving" was too much. How much energy does it saves? 3-5%? If it was 10% that would b3 something.

[@manavmanan226]

That's how calculator, notes pads, calendar, feel about smartphone ! 😂

[@Sergiuss555]

looks good but i dont like the shitload of actuators that this robot is filled with
