Cheetah Robot Breaks Land Speed Record

A remarkable moment in robotics has been achieved, the robot known as Cheetah has set a land speed record for legged machines by racing up to 18mph on a treadmill. This is quite an accomplishment, and the developers at Boston Dynamics are hoping for even greater achievements for Cheetah in the future.

The DARPA funded program is looking to take Cheetah out of the lab and into the field to better understand the limits of fast moving robots.
