#1 Bill Bittner on 06 Jun 08For example, take a clockwork robot. In order to walk on two legs, it would need to process a lot of information. And a clockwork brain may not be able to process this much information, due to friction. Plus, if it's energy source is purely spring-based, such a source would scarcely be enough to make the robot walk more than a few steps, let alone process the information it needs to take those few steps.
