Swiss researchers created a cube that can sit, jump, and walk

Swiss researchers have created a metallic cube that can “walk” across a surface. Staff at the Federal Institute of Technology Zurich crammed a series of inertia sensors and constantly-spinning rotors into a 15-centimeter cube, dubbed Cubli, that enable the contraption to move around on its own.

Today in terrifying robotics news, researchers at the Institute for Dynamic Systems and Control, in Switzerland, have built a cube. A robot cube. A robot cube that can jump, rotate, balance and walk on its own. Wait, what?
