Watch This Gymnast Bot Stick an Impossible Landing

Posted on March 15, 2013 by dkohn96

From Gizmodo

We can’t get enough of these tiny but impressive robot gymnasts who flip through the air and stick their landings. We’re probably only seeing the one time it lands upright in about 100 attempts, but who cares? They’re only going to get better and better. And one day the summer Olympics might actually be worth watching. Give that robot the wood medal. (Because it’s not programmed to recognize the value of gold.)
