P.s. it takes nearly 10 secs to move a couple of meters (or even 1 meter) hence people might die from bordem]]>May 22nd 2008 12:17AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/05/21/grasshoppper-robot-sets-new-high-jump-record/http://www.engadget.com/2008/05/21/grasshoppper-robot-sets-new-high-jump-record/May 21st 2008 6:25PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/05/21/grasshoppper-robot-sets-new-high-jump-record/http://www.engadget.com/2008/05/21/grasshoppper-robot-sets-new-high-jump-record/May 22nd 2008 10:59AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/05/21/grasshoppper-robot-sets-new-high-jump-record/http://www.engadget.com/2008/05/21/grasshoppper-robot-sets-new-high-jump-record/]]>May 22nd 2008 12:58PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/05/21/grasshoppper-robot-sets-new-high-jump-record/http://www.engadget.com/2008/05/21/grasshoppper-robot-sets-new-high-jump-record/
Daily high jump competitions and subjugation for everyone. Rejoice.]]>May 21st 2008 6:28PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/05/21/grasshoppper-robot-sets-new-high-jump-record/http://www.engadget.com/2008/05/21/grasshoppper-robot-sets-new-high-jump-record/Haha, that's so funny! The first, second, maybe third, not quite fourth, definitely not the fifth time. Considering how often Engadget has posts about robots those comments gets kind of old. I would say it's almost as worn out as Doom comments.

they adjust the height mechanically not with the microprocessor.

I really love this thing and I am sure it will become a robot in the near futur.]]>May 21st 2008 7:39PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/05/21/grasshoppper-robot-sets-new-high-jump-record/http://www.engadget.com/2008/05/21/grasshoppper-robot-sets-new-high-jump-record/May 22nd 2008 5:26AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/05/21/grasshoppper-robot-sets-new-high-jump-record/http://www.engadget.com/2008/05/21/grasshoppper-robot-sets-new-high-jump-record/

"OK, nice, but what useful real world application does it have?"

"Errr........ well........ I spose you could use it to explore disaster areas"]]>May 21st 2008 7:14PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/05/21/grasshoppper-robot-sets-new-high-jump-record/http://www.engadget.com/2008/05/21/grasshoppper-robot-sets-new-high-jump-record/
Its a bit useless, you'd be better of throwing it into disaster areas, probably would go further!]]>May 21st 2008 7:16PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/05/21/grasshoppper-robot-sets-new-high-jump-record/http://www.engadget.com/2008/05/21/grasshoppper-robot-sets-new-high-jump-record/
