If a hook were added on the feet it could hang upside-down like a bat, hanging like that would save power. Also wheels extentions could be added on the calfs and shins that fold down similar to SpaceX lading legs to use gravity on hills and mountains to propel it forward extending its effective range. Perhaps using the turning of the wheels to either store energy in the wheels in a spring for a boost to the wheels or convert to electric to extend the battery life

Leonardo's control systems and stability are very good. As for the practical use, he can be like a patrol drone on mountains. Ex- 2013's floods in Uttarakhand killed hundreds and misplaced thousands. In such situation, a more robust drone like Leonardo could help in patroling the mountains quicker than a full size Helicopter. In the rescue effort of the floods, some rescue helicopters also crashed. So a larger more heavily built Leonardo robot cna definitely do such jobs and provide surveillance safely. 💯

One way I see the rotors used is as gyroscopes for stability. Walking robots have multiple gyros constantly spinning for stability and control. Adding propellors to the gyros adds additional functionality. There is also the flexibility, versatility, and redundancy of multiple modes of locomotion; lighter bipedal robots with rotors for flight and perching, quadrupedal plus rotors for heavier loads and jumping.

Well,..once they want to carry something that is too heavy to just fly away with, then the legs will be useful. To use legs only for balancing like the Atlas or Spot robots from Boston Dynamics is very difficult. So it is a cheap and easy way to balance, without as much sensors, computing power etc. If you stand on 1 leg holding a heavy thing, you may fall, but just 1 finger touching a wall and it becomes easier, but your finger isn't bearing all the weight. So this robot could for example fly to an island, move some bricks around which are too heavy to lift by flying, and come back (why.. idk).

As someone who dabbles in slack lining, it’s interesting how Leonardo bounces on the line, which I’ve found is a helpful technique for humans as well. Bouncing negates some of the side-to-side movement of the line, and allows you to stay more upright and stable. Once you get better, you learn to ride with the line, but as a beginner, bouncing definitely helps you to learn.

Propellers kill the batteries rapidly; they need to be integrated as a last resort for balance and engaged when it comes close to its tipping point; instead, perhaps tweak the ZMP and/or DSC algorithms. Of course this is easy for me to say behind a keyboard. Great concept though and yes add some wheels that can be activated when needing to.

It's great to know when they fine tune this and scale it bigger, the future robot that is sent to kill me will do some cool MJ moon dance before striking the fatal blow... it lightens the mood

This really isn't practical, a drone with wheels can accomplish everything this can. Try finding out the flight time on this thing, likely under half an hour.

You are who we use the smoke trails for. 😛 Very little science is actually done with those visualizations, with the exception of PIV. It's really just a quick rough look at the overall airflow if needed before diving into the detail work with quantifiable measurements.

I've played enough BattleTech to know that jump-jets are OP.

It can help in surveying complex land terrains.

I'm a retired electronic tech. I have built a few simple robots myself. This newer flying robot is fantastic and a great achievement. Very useful in many cases. Rescue/ search could be just one. BUT even to me it looks creepy as "H"!!!

Its neat, but when I watch Boston Dynamics robots deal with an unexpected event (being knocked over, down or bumped) it is able to reset and right itself back up. With these, their unprotected propellers would be damaged in the event of being knocked over or accidently bumping in to something (branch, small strings or twine etc) And at that point would need a human to intervene to assist it.

It’s rapid prototyping, you wouldn’t build that onto a prototype because it’s not 100% necessary to the conceptual design and it may change the aerodynamics when they are testing to see if the thing even works in the first place. It’s also why the back is exposed as well.

@benc1927

@@JuniusJones Sure, but it will still get knocked over. How does it get back up when knocked over (assuming the added weight of the blade shrouds didn't get fouled up) Ultimately this will have a limited niche use application as it does two things poorly. Walking and flying, both of which a dedicated walknig drone and flying drone could achieve more easily. Blending the two is interesting, but long term limited.

Well the way that Hollywood completely ignores the physics of sound and explosions in space, the loudness of guns/silencers, etc. I think it's safe to say that movies will continue to act like drones are really quiet.

Smart makes sense, using propellers for data analysis to help with stabilizations. As they say, more data better way to solve a complex issue.
