Unsure of the use though for any transportation very difficult to mount anything rigid to that track.&nbsp; And may need to figure out a track tensioning device if it were to try to get to the point of being the locomotive device for anything. Would hate to rely on that to have the tracks fly off while turning.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Very cool though. </p><img src="https://community.element14.com/aggbug?PostID=8680&AppID=141&AppType=Weblog&ContentType=0" width="1" height="1">https://community.element14.com/technologies/industrial-automation-space/b/blog/posts/robot-can-create-its-own-track-and-move-on-top-of-itFri, 07 Feb 2020 10:25:58 GMT93d5dcb4-84c2-446f-b2cb-99731719e767:dda8ef93-ec79-4541-9d74-6fc1fb7543c2dubbie0<p>It is always good to see a new type of mobile robot. This one is very interesting. I have been thinking of 3D printing my own tank track links, just for fun. It might be more fun to try and create something like this as well, although I might need some new CAD skills to do it.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Dubbie</p><img src="https://community.element14.com/aggbug?PostID=8680&AppID=141&AppType=Weblog&ContentType=0" width="1" height="1">
