The car is built using an actual BMW, though you can’t hop in and take a ride in it yet.
“The cars are not drivable in traffic yet. They function via remote control. This is possible in the near future due to its electric engine,” according to Letrons.
The car mode is more mobile than their robot mode – as they haven’t quite gotten the bots to walk yet.
“The walking functionality can be added if a reasonable funding is provided for a new research and development project," Letrons said.
But just because it can’t walk, doesn’t mean it can’t dance.
