The two-legged Tron 1 robot from LimX Dynamics bears a striking resemblance to the AT-ST walkers from Star Wars, but it’s not made for conquering the galaxy.<\/p>\n

I took the Tron 1 for a spin earlier this year at CES, but right out of the box its abilities were largely limited to preprogrammed movements and remote-control operation. Driving the robot around a Las Vegas hotel room was a lot of fun, but I didn’t scratch the surface of what the robot was capable of until now.<\/p>\n

LimX Dynamics has shared some videos of the Tron 1 being put to work in real-world scenarios: as a tour guide, a delivery robot and even a street photographer.<\/p>\n

The Tron 1 from LimX Dynamics comes with wheels, pointed feet and flat feet attachments.<\/p>\n

These demos show what developers can program a robot like the Tron 1 to do. Time will tell what other capabilities are unlocked in this and other robots.\u00a0<\/p>\n
