Day of the Tripods was originally an HG Wells Novel written in around 1897. There have been many adaptations since including a film in 1953 and another remake featuring Tom Cruise in 2005, and many other TV series and other media.
But can Tripods really walk? They only have three legs which means they have to stand on two legs while taking a step with the other leg.
I decided to build a 3D printed tripod robot which can walk along - calculating inverse kinematics and defining the gait.
