Well, pretty much Dutch = South African, if you know the history.

I, for one, welcome our new wind-powered overlords.

the wind powered sail portions remind me of the aliens in The Abyss. just elegant. and the way the thing moves, that motion... millipede like. my god, I am just so moved by those things. art+science=wonderful use of the entire mind

BTW, some people seem to think that these things use compressed air, in fact they do, but it is made from the mechanical actions gained from the wind.Imagine an air-compressor attached to a windmill and pneumatic mechanics moving the windmill around, that is basically what you have here, only with a little more artistic accent to them. They have to store compressed air made from a lot of wind action gathered over a long time so as to move for only a short time until they store more air.

I'd like to see a BMW use air as it's primary fuel source.

Amazing NOT!The only thing amazing about this is this guy has the chuzpa to claim they are wind powered when the video clearly shows him dragging it around with a rope.

Wonder what kind of turbine they have in these robots - wind power? <a class="user" href="http://www.turbinemanufacturers.net/">http://www.turbinemanufacturers.net/</a>
