DARPA cheetah robot sets root speed record

Last year DARPA was pretty popular on YouTube after showing off BigDog. However, now they have a cheetah. Just yesterday, DARPAtv uploaded a video showing their cheetah running up to speeds of 18 miles per hour! Its capable of doing this using four agile legs and a "backbone" that moves. Not only have they mastered robots from falling down, but now they have robots running faster than us. Thanks for reading, and I highly recommend the video above!
