This is a pretty incredible looking robot. It’s got the ability to roll on wheels or lock their rotation and use them as a kind of big bouncy feet and walk around. It has a front mount for manipulator arms and a mast for sensors that is about the same height as a humans head. This lets the robot get a more human picture of the world, NASA/JPL did this on the current Mars rover mission. To me the whole thing looks like a centaur. Should be useful around a warehouse or a farm if it can pull a trailer.
