I don't get the desire to have micro walking robots when tracked, wheeled, or other forms of locomotion are easier, simpler, and cheaper to implement. The only place you need a walking robot would be in environments meant to serve people, where non-walkers would find difficulty maneuvering. And in that case they need to be comparable to adult humans in size.
