It's a robot unlike any other. Inspired by the world's fastest land animal, researchers at MIT unveiled the "cheetah robot" that can run and jump on its own power. Engineers have high hopes the rob ...
The cheetah is off the leash! Researchers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology have built a four-legged robot that runs like the super-fast spotted feline and can even run on its own power ...
In a leap for robot development, the MIT researchers who built a robotic cheetah have now trained it to see and jump over hurdles as it runs - making this the first four-legged robot to run and jump ...
A team of researchers at MIT have figured out a way to make a four-legged, cheetah-like robot run and jump more gracefully and efficiently. To get there, they studied animals like dogs and cats ...
Scurrying across the ground at speeds of up to 9mph, this four-legged robotic 'cheetah' is sure to make you jump. It has been developed by engineers at MIT and is even able to rapidly traverse ice ...
The MIT engineers behind the robot mini cheetah released a video showcasing its new running and terrain-traversing skills on Thursday.
This video actually shows the robot cheetah clearing obstacles just over 15-inches tall while running, and without the need for a single cable tether while it’s being tested outside the lab. MIT ...
The agility and speed of the cheetah -- the fastest land animal on earth -- inspired the design of a robot that can run and jump across grassy terrain. The robotic cheetah, created by a team at ...
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.
According to Alexander Sproewitz, biomechanical roboticist and lead author of the new research, the headless robot, also referred to as a “cheetah-cub” robot, can run up to 1.4 meters per second.
MIT’s Cheetah 3 robot doesn’t need to see to run up a set of stairs, a new video from MIT shows. Even without cameras to dodge obstacles by sight, the 90-pound robot is equipped with new ...
The cheetah is off the leash! Researchers at MIT have built a four-legged robot that runs like the super-fast spotted feline and can even run on its own power, off a treadmill. The robot has now ...
