Sub robot ride

Many cyclists wish to help by running up the hill. Now an inventor has created a robot ... to run a bike. In the face of his son's challenge, Chris built a pair of pedal-powered bicycles to climb the hills near his home in the United States.

The engineer made the Joules, a robot with the same footprint as a person sitting in the back seat and riding a bicycle with the help of an electric motor. Chris only has to work for his legs to turn around and control the steering wheel. " The interesting thing is to make a pedal-like, pedal-like combination that would fit the pedal ," Chris said ahead of a technology forum.

To help the two ' people ' settle down on the road, Chris added two balancing wheels in the back. Robots, double bikes and electric scales weigh about 90 kilograms. Most of Joules' bodies are made of hard aluminum alloy.
