From Kåre Halvorsen project on the Lynxmotion forums:
Sphere shaped hexapod that I plan to give the following features:
- Roll freely like a ball
- Have different sort of locomotion for moving in any direction
- Variable inner-body dimensions
- Transform from a sphere shape into a hexapod and vice versa
- Walk like a hexapod
Project's summary on Robotee and original forum thread.
