Sooo, cool. Not creepy, something like that would be handy for special forces!
Its pneumatically powered, so it will require an air compressor ;)
So that’s probably not a standalone snake !
My vote: Its COOL !
Creepy!
Cool! That’s the cleverest way to climb a tree I’ve ever seen!
Very Cool and interesting! Our robots are getting more advanced… That is a huge advance in movement abilities for robotics…
Verrr-ry verrr-ry cool. Great idea :)
