To prove that its Evolta batteries are powerful, Panasonic’s robot went around the famed track of 24-hours of LeMans. And that on just two AA batteries. The robot completed five and a half laps, accounting for a total of 23.7 kilometers of distance before it ran out of juice. The 30cm long and 20cm high robot was guided around the track by a vehicle that emitted infrared light for the bot to follow. This feat earned the robot, and the batteries, a place in the Guinness Book of World Records for “the longest distance covered by a battery-operated remote-controlled model car.”
