Hacker News Stories and Comments

All the comments and stories posted to Hacker News that reference this video.
I don’t have any in my RSS feed, but if you were to search for them I would try finding some describing iRobot Root or Mindstorm projects.

If videos could do then perhaps the Brick Experiments Channel could have something interesting: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=MwHHErfX9hI

Was hoping to see an implementation of the Rocker-Bogie from NASA's Mars Rovers, famous for being able to go over obstacles larger than the tyres' diameters. Found another implementation of it here [1].
