    Sangbae Kim: Inspired by Nature

    Published on Aug 14, 2013

    MIT Assistant Professor of Mechanical Engineering Sangbae Kim describes his cutting-edge research in the area of biomimetics, the study of biological systems as models for the design and engineering of robots. Professor Kim's current project -- a robot inspired by the special abilities of the cheetah -- runs at high speeds with an energy efficiency similar to animals.

    MIT Robotic Cheetah

    Uploaded on Sep 10, 2014

    MIT researchers have developed an algorithm for bounding that they've successfully implemented in a robotic cheetah.

    The key to the bounding algorithm is in programming each of the robot's legs to exert a certain amount of force in the split second during which it hits the ground, in order to maintain a given speed: In general, the faster the desired speed, the more force must be applied to propel the robot forward. In experiments the robot sprinted up to 10 mph and MIT researchers estimate the robot may eventually reach speeds of up to 30 mph.

    The MIT Cheetah 2 contains the custom electric motor designed by Jeffrey Lang, the Vitesse Professor of Electrical Engineering at MIT and the amplifier designed by David Otten, a principal research engineer in MIT’s Research Laboratory of Electronics.

    This work was supported by the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency.

    MIT's Cheetah Robot Runs, Leaps and Inspires

    Published on Nov 30, 2014

    A team of researchers at MIT have created a 70-pound cheetah robot that can run and jump on its own power. Developers hope the mechanics behind the battery-powered animal will help in the creation of new prosthetics and other technologies. (Dec. 1)

    MIT cheetah robot lands the running jump

    Published on May 28, 2015

    In a leap for robotic 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 over obstacles autonomously.
