That is amazing. I can see so many applications coming from this invention, especially for travelling in deserted areas. The interesting thing is that this is titled not an invention but a sculpture. An intelligent sculpture that seems like more like an invention except that its hard to utilize in its current form. The fact that it doesnt use electricity may limit its uses but perhaps we could harness wind power using this technology?


What do you think would be a good application for such an invention?

seems it is very unique kind of Wind Generated pnuematic powered toy............

that is able to carry it's own weight.....and propell itself on level ground............

Put a ROCK the size of what the pyramids have........... on it would crush it let alone moving the rock....................

the only direction the rock would move is DOWN...............

This concept is not new has been around a while was called the Hydraulic Walker:

Believe it or not, this was a dead-serious project by the US Army to allow troops to carry gear over rough terrain and through jungles. They actually built a prototype that looked like an iron elephant that had tangled with a computer mainframe, but it proved impractical because of limitations of the hydraulic systems, driver fatigue while carrying out even the simplest of tasks, and the tendency of the machine to do the Hokey Cokey without provocation.

For life and death are one, and only those who will consider the experience as one may come to understand or comprehend what peace indeed means.
