Halluc II is a robot that thinks it's a tank and a cockroach. A product of Leading Edge Development and the fuRo center of Chiba Institute of Design, the 'bot can move in six mysterious ways, including going forward, sideways, up steps and slopes - and if you ask nicely, it'll spin around. Weighing 44 pounds and at 31 inches long, the eight-legged/wheeled beast fuses robot and automobile technology and works off a Linux OS. Check its fancy footwork in the video after the jump.
这是一款由日本千叶理工学院（Chiba Institute of Technology）设计的Halluc II型八足机器人，它通过八条腿和八个轮子来行动。
机器人通过56个发动机来驱动——每个关节有2个（每条腿有三个关节），每个轮子也有1个，重44磅，31英寸长。这样的八足设计较之以前的机器人更为灵活，它可以用汽车、动物和昆虫三种姿势行进，来适应不同的路况，这样就能够非常轻松的越过障碍适应各种复杂的环境。采用的是Lunix操作系统。
