Why not take Raibo robot dog for walkies?
(Picture: KAIST)Scientists with backing from Samsung have developed a new robotdog that can move at speeds of up to three metres per second on sand.
The four-legged droid is the brainchild of a research team from the Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology (KAIST). Its creators claim the robot has the stability to traverse rough surfaces, and can agilely tackle soft ground without losing its balance.
