What you will see, here is MABEL Faculty of electrical engineering and computer science, a special project at the University of Michigan, and it's the "fastest two-legged robot with knee".
How fast can it go? The maximum speed is miles per hour, in a flat, circular track. The speed is pretty good, and it is due to a "human-like weight distribution".
Watch a video of it after the jump, and I can tell you that no special effects in the film were used. I would have not taken, if she had used a greenscreen, to make the bar invisible.
Man, I'd love to get my LEGO set and try and replicate these bipedal robots. The reason working University of Michigan as follows on a robot is, because they help a few robot legs want to develop people with disabilities go again. You want to create a robot that can handle all the terrain, such as the walking robot in Star Wars.
This looks definitely like a scene from a science fiction film. I can not help but to think of the ED-209 robot from RoboCop , if I see this. I believe that ED-209 was much slower. I assume that the advanced MABEL can get better than that of the ED-209 stairs.
Pooch is on dry kibble or the good, sloppy stuff from a can, but what happens when you create a robotic dog? Sure, Sony AIBO was a rich man toys back in his time, and since then is it now "extinct", as it would be far cheaper with something and would also help you to achieve your financial goals?
