Robot Shatters Speed-Walking Record
A simple-minded, two-legged robot named RunBot can't run. But boy, can it walk!
The 1-foot tall European speed demon moves at 3.5 leg-lengths per second [Video].
That's the equivalent of a human walking almost 10 feet per second; and more than twice as fast as its closest running mate, Spring Flamingo, who hails from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.
