https://image.ibb.co/mF9sKy/dims.jpg Cool developments coming out of Harvard these days it seems... It turns out they are becoming extremely proficient in designing tiny amphibious robots! The Harvard Ambulatory Microbot (HAMR) now has the ability to swim and walk underwater. Of course it needs not to be said that before its recent upgrades it already had no problem walking on land. But how can it swim exactly? Well it seems engineers were able to design Its foot pads to use surface tension and related buoyancy to float on the water. I think its absolutely amazing. >Its tiny size and 1.65-gram weight play a crucial role -- significantly bigger and it would be hard for the robot to stay above-water. >When it needs to return to land, HAMR overcomes the surface tension force with a stiffened transmission and soft pads that redistribute the friction while it climbs out of the water. The mini machine is even something of a cargo hauler with support for a 1.44-gram payload. So now that I've informed you about the tiny swimming robots let me turn your attention to another interesting robot. It seems that the brand new CanguRo robot is part transport, part best friend! I had to laugh watching the video below... Let me just leave you with this question before you watch the video... How do you think the CanguRo will sell in Western markets? Do you think westerners would be up for traveling like the guy in the video? https://youtu.be/BVobmBB0f58 Well, I hope you found that as entertaining as I did! Please go ahead and leave comments and feedback below about these new super robots! I'd love to know how you feel about them. Thanks for supporting @techblogger!

Build a relationship or try to build one with other bloggers on the platform. Don't be a taker... Offer something of value in terms of posts, comments etc. It takes time, you will have a lot to learn. Few have the patience or dedication to succeed at this if your goal is solely financial gain. Good luck.

Ha! Don't worry the CanguRo is still many generations away from becoming your robot overlord. It cant even hop yet!
