Scientists develop robot with 20 legs that can climb walls

  • Engineers at Duke University created Argus, a robot with 20 legs that can climb walls and move with no distinct front or back, featuring 20 eyes.
  • Argus uses a new design concept called dynamic symmetry, allowing it to move agilely and self-stabilize quickly in environments like forests, wet surfaces, and sand.
  • The robot can quickly stabilize after being pushed, change orientation instantly, climb vertically between close walls, and carry or push payloads.
  • Jiaxun Liu from Duke University said, "Watching Argus move is unlike watching any other robot we’ve worked with".
