Robot omnidirectional gallops around

We know that humans always took drawings of the nature of inspiration - flat worms and robotic, but that is by using a snail as a model? That certainly would be far more the spirit of the people, but snails "galloping" around such as the inchworm, paste the front of his foot on a surface, taking the rest of his body behind. Galloping technique has been studied more closely and enhanced for robots and adapted by Biomechatronics lab at the University of Chuo at the Japan.

Known as the "snail-wave omnidirectional Mobile Robot," Toro II, it is certainly not a snail and there is no shell to crush, but the greatest benefit would be to move in all directions, with an area wide and high, which is still in contact with the ground.

No idea on how it's going to be applied for the use of the real world. What do you think? I am convinced that the army would be a good idea on the implementation on the battlefield…
