Insect-esque machine prototype helps logging
by yogesh
Felling trees is a tedious task, hoping to make matters easier is this Plustech Oy / John Deere hexapod logging machine prototype. It has strong six-legs that does less damage to the forest and can move through more difficult terrain than wheeled or tracked logging machines. Apparently when the machine confronts obstacles, it simply steps over them.
