Rob Chapman is one of those guys who is so bright that it is scary. He gets down to the essence of things. He writess code that is the most simple and elegant that I have ever seen.
A number of years ago he showed me a soda straw and some muscle wire that he was using to do robotics exeriments. On seeing Theo Jansen's work I immediatel thought of Rob. We had this exchange. Check out Rob's bots and the micro hand on the DARPA site.
