walker_(robot)


A type of bipedal (or multipedal) non-humanoid robot or mecha frequently used in science fiction media.


They usually lack a head or arms and some have chicken-like legs. The AT-ST and AT-AT from Star Wars are arguably the most recognizable examples of this style of mecha design.


Do not confuse these for regular mechas - if it's humanoid it's typically not a walker.
