Cheetah Robot runs 28.3 mph; a bit faster than Usain Bolt



BostonDynamics

Cheetah Robot is a fast-running quadruped developed by Boston Dynamics with funding from DARPA. It just blazed past its previous speed record, getting up to 28.3 mph, about 0.5 mph faster than Usain Bolt’s fastest 20 meter split. This version of the Cheetah Robot runs on a treadmill with offboard power. Testing on an untethered outdoor version starts early next year. For more information about Cheetah or the other robots we develop, visit www.BostonDynamics.com.

  1. I'm more afraid of what the next iteration will turn into.. maybe something deployable from a pod.. leaping over or through obstructions.. able to apprehend or seize objects..
    compact when stored or when not in use.. scalable variations.. able to redeploy..

  2. Hmmm. What will these be used for?
    Makes me wonder how much they have improved on this machine since this was made a long while ago.
    Thats why im always thinking outside the box and sometimes get ideas on what they are up to now!
