Robot built to Pogo

At a fleeting glace, and ignoring the headline, you might mistake this as an entry in our “outboard motor” section. It is however a purpose built, one legged robot and far from some backyard experiment, its Toyota that’re behind it.

Speaking of which, being behind it’s probably not a good idea, as its sole intention can only be to give “the boot” to anyone within reach, or perhaps set world records in the up/down motion category.

We’d be interested in a comedy routine involving a room full of these set to music, but struggle to see viable implications in any other areas, one-legged Kangaroo sympathiser anyone?
