Velociraptor robot nearly as fast as Cheetah A newly created running robot based on the Velociraptor is faster than Usain Bolt, and closing in on the first robot that broke Bolt's record.

Full and his team are now working on a robot that can stabilize itself if it starts to bank left or right in the air. Full’s lizard analysis also led him into unfamiliar territory: paleontology. He ...

In 2012, robots became faster than humans, when DARPA's Cheetah robot -- inspired by the fastest land animal -- surpassed the fastest man on earth, Olympic runner Usain Bolt. However, other robots ...

Everyone remember that classic example of wasteful research wherein scientists intensively tested the physical properties and viscosity of ketchup? No? Well, we've got the insane paleontologist ...

We have to admit, the tail system does look a bit dangerous for any humans who might need to interact with the robot. It does work though, as evidenced by Raptor bounding over Styrofoam blocks.

A South Korean research team has developed a two-legged robot that can reach speeds up of to 46 km per hour (or about 28.5 mph). The robot’s inspiration? The Velociraptor.

The Raptor robot is capable of running close to DARPA’s robotic cheetah design that can reach speeds of 29.2 mph (47 km/h). However the design of the Raptor robot is much less complicated and ...

The velociraptor-inspired Raptor robot is capable of reaching a top speed of roughly 28mph, though researchers told IEEE Spectrum it can reach an even higher mark at the expense of stability.
