It looks like Panasonic’s Evolta Robot will be the first ever robot to attempt to complete an Ironman Triathlon, as he is taking part in the famous Hawaii Iron man Triathlon, and is hoping to finish the 140 course withing one week.

The Panasonic Evolta robot is just 7 inches tall and has already completed some impressive challenges which include walking from Tokyo to Kyoto and climbing the Grand Canyon.

Panasonic are using the Evolta Robot to show off their Evolta line of rechargeable batteries, and the tiny robot will have to complete a swim, cycle and a run.

He will start the course on the 23rd of October, although he wont be taking part with other atheletes and will try out the course on his own one week after the official race takes place.
