thingiverse

Behold the innovative Landstrider! This versatile accessory enables Sphero to stroll on its own with remarkable stability, courtesy of eight sturdy legs. The proprietary powertrain seamlessly translates Sphero's rotational motion into a fluid, stride-like movement inspired by Theo Jansen's pioneering mechanism. Future versions of the Landstrider will include adjustable gears that allow educators to illustrate the fundamentals of mechanical advantage and teach hands-on engineering skills to students. Additionally, the adaptable powertrain can be reconfigured to power vehicles equipped with wheels, tank treads, or propel a boat through water with precision.
