Unless its a dog house. 2nd By the speed of it moving out from the flood is totally project fail. 3th The thing looks more like a coffin than a house. But still have to giv credits to the technology they try to put in to create the 1st generation transformer... 1st this so call house is smaller than a room. Unless its a dog house.

Maybe it would work for Nasa on a Mars journey? I don’t know if it is stupid but rather interesting. Maybe it would work for Nasa on a Mars journey?

I can see it walking over Martian terrain, it would be fabulously useful in a place like that. Six legs mean it's always on a steady tripod base when moving. If it's uber slow I chalk it up to being the first version, I imagine later prototypes would be faster and more agile. They'd have to be a lot bigger too, it's a bit cramped for a family in there. But definitely a great idea to develop. They ought to have rural and suburban versions, aka one with wheels that enables the legs to tuck away. This thing looks pretty cool to me.
