A robot that turns itself into a car like something from Transformers has been unveiled by a team of engineers in a world first
J-deite RIDE can transform from a standing 12ft robot into a sports car with two people on board.
The transformation, which takes about a minute to complete, is the brainchild of a team from Japan who have been working on its development for three years.
J-deite RIDE can technically walk at a speed of 100 metres per hour (0.06 mph) or run on its four wheels at about 60kph - about 38mph- but developers said they've never really tested it outside the factory cargo bay area.
