BrainBank: This Insectobot Is Actually Kind of Cute Edition



Phasma is a tiny robot built for the express purpose of running around. Specifically, its design allows to run in the same fashion as an insect, always having at least three of its legs on the ground in order to keep stable, and obviously employing an insectoid gait.

While it might walk like a cockroach, though, I think they actually managed to make the little Kinex-looking guy look cute. Certainly a far-cry from his robotic descendants that will burrow into peoples' brains and take them over during the inevitable robot uprising.
