Advertise on podcast: The Tardigrade Chronicles

On the first episode of "The Tardigrade Chronicles", host Alan S. Rudolph is covering locomotion, or using the natural ability of quadrupedal, bipedal, and flying animals to inform the movement of robotics (swimming, however, is a story for another time). Tune in to discover the challenges of replicating natural motion, the force dynamics of something as “simple” as insect hexapods to the more complex bipedal human leg,, and how it was only in the year 2000 that scientists could even agree on exactly how a bee's wings worked. Please enjoy this episode of "The Tardigrade Chronicles”! Produced by Halteres Associates.

"The Tardigrade Chronicles" is a new video podcast about nature’s principles and designs and how they translate into real-world impact. Hosted by Alan S. Rudolph, an evolutionary biologist with a career spanning academia, industry, and government, each episode of "The Tardigrade Chronicles" will tackle an idea - an evolutionary insight - and how it became something more: a new material, a new application, an innovation imparted into society. Because buried in every biological solution is a blueprint, and sometimes the smallest organisms - like the resilient tardigrade - hold the biggest answers. This is where biology meets design. Where insight becomes application. Listen to or watch "The Tardigrade Chronicles" on YouTube, Spotify, and Apple Podcasts beginning this Earth Day, Wednesday, April 22nd.
