Really news worthy?
I had to check my calendar, just to confirm April 1 hadn't come around again.
This is not a 'robot' its a rubber sack and some tubes, more worthy of a high-school science project than a technology news item.
Does it sense the colour its resting on and decide?, can it self-adapt? - I think not. Is it's not even remotely self-contained, probably having an array of machinery off-screen.
These guys must have to mix up some colour in advance, knowing what surface their test is on. And the movement technology, is that really going to fly in the real world applications - a sac that jerks its way very slowly in some barely controlled direction..
