In this segment from the Hippy Gourmet TV show, we visit with Bob Schneeveis, the inventor of the Solar Powered Walking Chariot!
Bob is a brilliant and eccentric character who studies nature and then turns it into sustainable, solar-electric vehicles and gadgets…
Bob also donates his time to students studying robotics, and certainly gets our award for being the truest of nutty professors!
Check out how clean powered engine drives these legs and rollerblades in such a human-like fashion…amazing! This thing actually has a lot of kick to it and is capable of covering all kinds of terrain it seems.
Best of all, this chariot demonstrates that earth-happy innovations and creativity are all around us.
