BostonDynamics
Cheetah is a new robot being developed by Boston Dynamics with funding from DARPA’s Maximum Mobility and Manipulation program. Last week Cheetah set a new land speed record for legged robots, galloping 18 mph on the treadmill. This version of the Cheetah is a lab prototype with offboard power and a boom that planarizes its motion. Testing on a free-running version of the Cheetah that will run ‘unplugged’ in the field starts later this year. For more information about Cheetah or the other robots we develop, visit www.BostonDynamics.com.

Amazing
Struggling but doing it imagine 20 to 50 years from now I'll be 70 but with a robot to help me nd robot dog to take me places
Sorry, but you sounded like you were saying the opposite.
i like the fact that almost all their inventions are named after animals
Reminds me of the Swedish House Mafia greyhounds.
Thanks so much for sharing these videos, its giving us a detailed look into finding ways to stop them when they replace soldiers – the totalitarian tiptoe is gathering speed – a bit like this contraption on this video.
Oh good, now we can't even outrun the fucking things!
bye bye humains
if speed boost to 50 mph then it would be perfect
at 29 mph it sounds same as me when i fap…
I feel sorry for the poor bastard that has to run behind them with the power cord !;)
Can't wait for the version that can run without ground contact (I know the jumping one, not that). That'll look epic I'm sure.
My only curious question is, if these were to be put out into the real world, somehow lose their balance and fall over – how will it get back up?
Just a little question that should be a lil important in the design.
all of the robots sound and look terrifying
Yeah! Voltron and Gundam on the freeway!
Imagine this shit running at you in an alley way
I can't stop thinking of Zoids.
Imagine how fast it runs forwards.
I see sharp teeth and some steel mantis claws at the top.
Mom if I get killed by retarded running robot tell them I jumped of a cliff okay
Yeaahh these motherfuckers don't need to be comin at us at 18 mph…
I want to see a weaponize version of this in my lifetime
I'm fast as fuck BOI.
We are witnessing the extinction of humans at its conception. Designing these products so they can not only beat us in strength and intelligence but agility too. Ask yourself would an AI given the task of ultimate efficiency consider the possibility of terminating such flawed creatures? The same creatures that create the hindrances to ultimate efficiency? We are moving towards automated driving for this reason. Robots are better at everything we do. It makes sense to say that at a point where they no longer need us they will begin to see us as unnecessary and even roadblocks.
Don't F.vck me Daddy!

I WANNA SEE IT OUTSIDE!!! fuck track..
Мне особенно нравится суперинновационный держатель кабеля на 0:05
I can run faster than that
This is a dog type galloping motion as opposed to a horse motion or bounding. Dogs and cats have flexible spines and gallop in a different rhythm than solid-spine quadrupeds like horses. So interesting.

When you out somewhere and your girl says she is home.
Stick a gun on it, make it bigger, and name them Gekkos! Metal Gear is here.

I was outran by 0:01
One month ago you gained 20mph, in 6 years! Along with many projects
You guys are great keep up the good work
What about 75?
Funded by DARPA? Yeah we're all totally fucked 🤦🏽♂️
Imagine being in the cyber-forest and that starts coming at you
wtf at the end they even just tell you that DARPA is funding it lmaoooo XD
those legs are made for running through crowd it seems, anyways always magnificent work by boston dynamics every year!
That's creepy
Now make it big enough to ride.
vai da meda vai da meda
Ok wow I choose spot, this guy is straight up scary, and yes it's the feet.
Why is it running backwards ? Because it cant poop ? Is that why ?
Oh hell no
