rhex was an unusual type of hexapod with six half circle “legs”. It appeared some years ago and was designed to be an all-terrain type robot. There was going to be software and a hardware platform: but I haven’t seen anything new about it in years. I just had a quick look around the net and could only find the “old stuff”. Although maybe these guys are picking it up?

The following youtube video has highlights of its modus operandi

Impressive video. I noticed it is by the same group as the Big Dog
I find Big dog a very impressive piece of robotics, especially when it recovers from the kick. I do find it a little creepy for some reason
