The MIT-built robot can run on batteries at speeds of more than 16 kph, jump about 40 centimetres high, land safely and continue galloping for at least 15 minutes You can save this article by ...

Researchers have built a robot cheetah that can outpace its animal counterparts in running efficiency by using light-weight motors and regenerating part of the energy used for walking. A 70-pound ...

This video from DARPA demonstrates their cheetah-inspired robot running on a treadmill, reaching a top speed and new world record of 18 mph. The robot, as of now, can't run without the support of a ...

There are a few humans alive who can outrun the new DARPA-funded Cheetah robot; if your name isn’t Usain Bolt, however, chances are you’re not one of them. This robot can reach speeds of up to 18 mph, ...

MIT researchers have built a robotic cheetah (because when the Terminators rise, they may want a pet). Last September, they demonstrated its running ability. But now, they’ve trained it to jump over ...

The latest version of MIT’s Cheetah robot made its stage debut today at TC Sessions: Robotics in Cambridge, Mass. It’s a familiar project to anyone who follows the industry with any sort of regularity ...

The Pentagon’s main research agency has created the fastest-ever land robot, named “Cheetah,” which can gallop at a speed of 29 kilometers per hour, scientists said this week You can save this article ...

It's a robot unlike any other, inspired by the world's fastest land animal and controlled by video game technology. The robot, called the cheetah, can run on batteries at speeds of more than 16 km/h, ...

CAMBRIDGE, Mass. - It’s a robot unlike any other: inspired by the world’s fastest land animal, controlled by video game technology and packing nifty sensors - including one used to manoeuvre drones, ...

Fast running robots are fun, fueling the imagination with all manner of military or search-and-rescue scenarios. This may be the reason why so many different groups from Boston Dynamics to MIT have ...
