A walking and self-balancing hexapod robot.

A biomimetic, six-legged robot, which emulates insect locomotion. The robot is a fully mobile Hexapod capable of multi-directional walking and self-balancing. The hexapod robot is a mechanical vehicle that walks on six legs. Since a robot can be statically stable on three or more legs, the hexapod robot has a great deal of flexibility in how it can move.
