Researchers have created a strategy allowing a one-legged robot to achieve upright landings after branch-to-branch jumps.
It weighs 11.4 pounds (5.2 kilograms). The device employs its three legs to realign the body ... simulation of Ceres’ gravity, the robot can reliably jump to commanded spots up to 6m distant.
Scientists have now copied the creatures' jumping mechanism in a small robot that could ... actuator-powered legs to scramble across the ground at speeds of up to 8.4 body lengths per second.
An API upgrade made to the Boston Dynamics Spot allows the robot to run three times faster than it's capable as it rolls out the assembly lines.
Robots that can jump have been seen before, but a robot that jumps all the time is a little different. Salto-1P is a one-legged jumping robot at UC Berkeley, and back in 2017 it demonstrated the ...
Boston Dynamics' Atlas robot has mastered breakdancing and gymnastics using motion capture and reinforcement learning in the ...
Via computer simulations and experiments to control the length of the linkages in the furcula as well as the energy stored in them, the team found that the robot could jump some 1.4 m horizontally, or ...
