Omnidirectional Robot Is A Ball Of Balls

The Argus omnidirectional robot developed by General Robotics Lab is a spherical robot with 20 spherical legs and 20 eyes (technically optical sensors). The robot demonstrates dynamics symmetry, meaning it can generate force/acceleration almost equally in all directions. It reminds me of a land octopus. What’s the 20 equivalent of octo? “Icosa.” AN ICOSAPUS. And with the rampant proliferation of AI I wouldn’t be the least bit surprised if there was a whole army of icosapuses plotting world domination right now. Put that in the tin foil pipe I made out of my hat and smoke it!
