3D Printed Giant Robotic Jumping Spider

A Team at the Fraunhofer Institute for Manufacturing Engineering and Automation in Germany 3D printed a really big robotic spider, the legs are 20 centimeters long each and the body adds another 20 cm, together it is about 0.6 meters...


It can jump and crawl with sophiosticated hydraulics like a real spider. The Body contains a control unit and multiple sensors. Its purpose is "an exploratory tool in environments that are too hazardous for humans."
