Cost: $1000
Symapod has its legs oriented in a star configuration. This star configuration allows it to instantaneously travel in any direction without turning or re-orientating itself. As you can see in the picture there is no front to Symapod! The head, which is not built yet, will mount in the middle on a 360-degree swivel joint.
Components:
