A two-stroke petrol engine let it reach 25 km/h using a galloping gait. WildCat was an outdoor version of the earlier Cheetah robot, which set a treadmill speed record of 28.3 mph in 2012. While aimed at military use, it helped develop more advanced robots. Credit @bostondynamicsofficial #knowledge #robot #technology #innovation #tech #didyouknow #hist

Artificial Intelligence News & Technology on Instagram: "WildCat is a four-legged robot developed by Boston Dynamics under DARPA’s M3 program. Designed as an untethered evolution of the Cheetah robot, WildCat is built to operate in outdoor environments. While Cheetah once set the record as the fastest legged robot, clocking over 29 mph, WildCat has achieved speeds of up to 16 mph using bounding and galloping gaits. The long-term goal: a robot capable of hitting 50 mph across varied terrain. Via:
