This is an incredible invention. A system of wheels and motors that can move the vehicle in any direction at any time.

You only have to watch the very beginning of the video to see the machine in action.

As one of the comments says, need to check how it works, how stable it is, on small or large obstacles, bumps, potholes.

I wouldn't imagine one as my daily driver, let me put it that way.

Reminds me of something I saw a few years back. 6 or 8 wheels, spidery, articulated. Wheels were the same "diagonal roller" setup.
Drove over some pretty impossible looking terrain.
Wouldn't have been a comfortable ride, though!

Very cool...
I would be very wary if I spot someone on one of these on the roads, though/ I can't help thinking this makes it easier for juveniles to act out on the road...  We already have enough of those making lives difficult for other road users.

Quote: Zilog has announced it is halting production of its standalone DIP-packaged Z80 CPU models — a move that could spell trouble for vintage computing enthusiasts looking to build Z80-based systems or repair existing machines with new parts.
Zilog launched the original eight-bit Z80 CPU in 1976 as its first product, designed by former Intel engineer and company co-founder Federico Faggin and early employee Masatoshi Shima. Designed to offer improvements over Intel's 8080 and built with embedded computing in mind, the Z80 quickly rose to become one of the most popular CPU choices for microcomputers — going head-to-head with MOS Technology's rival 6502, launched a year earlier, and appearing in devices including the Sinclair ZX Spectrum, Tandy TRS-80, and Namco's Pac-Man arcade cabinets.

Good thing I just stocked up on a supply of Z80 chips.

Welp, that's what FPGA's are for, should I get nostalgic for programming in Z80 assembly...
|
|

First learned assembler on a TRS-80 Model II. Had a lot of fun doing that.

Hmmm, with it being in so many things I can see a licenced pin compatible or FPGA implentation that is pin compatible being not very far away, Zilog said Z80 standalone so I'm guessing it (the Z80) is used in other things. I wonder how long it will be before a 'hack' mode is released to get Z80 functionality and pin layout from one of the later chips and if want a Z80 just buy XYZ81 and set pin 4 high, XXY81 will probably cost more than thhe Z80. Please tell me I'm thinking of them wrong

now I start to play with QCAD software and start by reading its user guide.
so I am wondering if you have any genius way to master this software quickly?
