A Robot that Walks on 24 Pneumatic Tubes
(YouTube Link)
Monica Anderson made this robot, which she calls the Icosatetraped. It walks on twenty-four legs made of soft tubing that extend under pneumatic pressure. The robot moves about one meter per minute. The video shows a brief demonstration of the robot in motion, and then provides a photo slideshow of the design and construction process.

Was it a competition to design the most useless and over-engineered robot possible?
