JPL's LEMURs - The next wave of spacebots

A friend was at JPL's recent open house and was raving over the next gen "rovers" to succeed the wheeled bots... These little devils could take the next big leap from Spirit and Opportunity. These things are so cool. I want one. Bot fans will love this! link

They actually use ultrasound to create "foot holds" in rock... amazing!

Enjoy,

Wow! I think I remember hearing about these in passing awhile back. They should be totally amazing.
