Speed-Walking Robot Breaks Records

Runbot is a two-legged robot that walks. fast. It's one foot tall and moves 3.5 leg-lengths per second, which is twice as fast as it's closest competitor, Spring Flamingo (developed at MIT). If Runbot were a human, it would be walking 10 feet per second. Runbot was developed at the University of Gottingen, the University of Glasgow and the University of Stirling in Scotland.
