Walking House


(YouTube link)

A Danish art collective, in collaboration with MIT, has built a prototype walking house!
The 10ft high home is solar and wind powered and can stroll at walking pace across all terrains.

It has a living room, kitchen, toilet, bed, wood stove and mainframe computer which controls the legs.

The pod will take its maiden stroll around rural Cambridgeshire at the Wysing Arts Centre in Bourn on Thursday.

Øivind Slaatto, one of the designers, plans to live in the house in Copenhagen. Link -via Arbroath

If you're going to claim that this machine can "stroll at a walking pace" shouldn't the sample video actually show it "strolling" rather than, well, not moving much at all, really? Just asking.
