description from an early web site
The blimp was a 12-foot-long airship with running legs (lower left) and insect-like wings (lower right).
It was one of The Robot Group’s most popular projects and had been featured on the Discovery Channel’s Invention Series, on ABC’s Good Morning America, and in Newsweek magazine.
