The Metamorphic Walker demonstrated at the Robots for Resilient Infrastructure Robotic Challenge Event 2017

A metamorphic walker capable of changing shape and mimicking various modes of animal movement was demonstrated by a team from Tianjin University and King's College London. The demonstration was part of the Robots for Resilient Infrastructure Robotic Challenge Event that took place on 27 to 28 June at Weetwood Hall, Leeds. The event was in UK Robotics Week 2017, and showcased the current state-of-the-art of robotics for infrastructure through a packed programme of talks and demonstrations. The event brought together over 80 academics, industry, policy makers and stakeholders to explore the use of robotics in the creation, inspection, repair and maintenance of critical infrastructure. Here Zhao Tang talks about the metamorphic walker and the value of attending the Robotics Challenge Event.
