HE's a giraffe. LOL
robo peace
That's pretty much my question. I thought he was an insect, but many disagree. So, my question... What *is* he?

No, Mark said it was initially based off a design he did for NASA that would allow a robot explorer to move in any direction.
I suggest you listen to the TekTime interview if you want to hear the alien line.

Lol. The spring has arrived.
Leo: For example today I will get love which I use to create sentences.
Billy: But you are neutral you need love.
Bridget: In the sky and cover the moment.
Bridget: Do you think that sleep mode is better than a human soul.

Technically an insect would have six legs, and a spider (arachnid) would have eight.
He looks more crab-ish than insectlike, to me. Especially when it's scooting sideways.
The leg count isn't right for crustaceons , either.
Hexapods are a popular stepping robot configuration, as you can get overlapping three leg strides that always leave three feet on the ground for stability.
Something like
- lift left front, left rear, and right middle feet
- move lifted feet forward
- lower feet
- lift right front, right rear, and left middle feet
- move lifted feet forward
- lower feet
- repeat as needed

Sure, an insect from EARTH would have 6-8 legs... But this is an alien insect! Who knows what could happen!?!
