DARPA and Boston Dynamics have broken their own legged-robot land speed record: Cheetah, which set a record of 18mph earlier in the year, has now been clocked at 28.3mph (12.6m/s) -- faster than Usain ...

MIT’s Biomimetics Lab recently broke the speed record for a robotic Mini Cheetah: not quite Usain Bolt speed, but probably faster than you can run. But this robot can’t see, and MIT’s researchers didn ...

After hours of testing, I'm thrilled to announce that you can now run the MIT Mini Cheetah in Gazebo using https://t.co/2URXjJ01j6. #goROS pic.twitter.com/fp344m7VbQ ...

The Pentagon's main research agency has created the fastest-ever land robot, named "Cheetah," which can gallop at a speed of 18 miles (29 kilometers) per hour, scientists said Tuesday. The headless ...

DARPA’s “Cheetah” robot set a new land speed record for legged robots, galloping at 18 miles per hour, topping the previous record of 13.1 miles per hour set in 1989. The robot’s movements are ...

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 ...
