Robot Walks On Water

Posted by timothy on from the jesus-bugs dept.

HaiLHaiL writes "MSNBC has an article on a water strider-inspired minirobot built by a Carnegie Mellon engineering professor. Nice." The article also summarizes some interesting recent research that explains how the real-life striders glide as they do. Update: 09/11 21:37 GMT by T : Thanks to Hank Zimmerman, I see that I missed this story the first time around -- mea culpa.
