I think you’d still need more size to account for longer strides and standing jumps.

Rhaedas@fedia.io 1 month agoI don't think it needs to be much bigger for an individual, just fast enough to keep them near the center even at a run. Smaller pads will be the way to go, just have to drive and control them in sync. Maybe predictive software to only run where your feet are at or will be, to minimize the noise.

I’d imagine running puts a lot more wear on the moving parts :/ It’s gonna have to be pretty reliable

I could see them innovating with electromagnetic suspension, like with predictive magnetic suspensions in supercars. General Atomics has also been developing a rarely green-lit, high-speed maglev train for freight in California, so we may see proliferation of that tech if the project shows success.
