A WALKING HOUSE

A new prototype house walked around the campus of the wysing Arts centre in Cambridgeshire, England.

The 10ft high home is solar and wind powered and can stroll at walking pace across at terrains .ad comes with a Kitchen, a composting toilet, a system for collecting rain water, one bed, a wood stove for CO2 neutral heating, arear opening that forms a stairway entrance, and six legs.

It was built by art collective N55 in Copenhagen, Denmark, who worked in Conjunction with engineers at MIT in Massachusetts, USA. and the Designers say it provides a solution to the problem of rising water levels as the house can simply walk from floods

The house walks about five Kilometers an hour similar to the walking speed of a human. The legs require a software algorithm to calculate the movement and position of the legs to provide stability over varying terrain The house can turn, move forward or backwards, or change heights as required and can be programmed with GPS way points for traveling to destinations.
