The Mini Cheetah ... The robot learned to run faster than ever before after the researchers from MIT's Improbable AI Lab replaced its running controller with a "learn-by-experience model." ...

MIT's mini cheetah robot has broken its own personal best (PB) speed, hitting 8.72 mph (14.04 km/h) thanks to a new model-free reinforcement learning system that allows the robot to figure out on ...

What’s better than a pretty nice legged robot ... Mini Cheetah design, and one of them is the Unitree Go1 series which sports a distinctive X-shaped sensor cluster on its “face”. The basic ...

In summary, because it's impractical to build analytical (human designed) models of all possible terrains in advance, and the robot's dynamics ... the latest MIT Mini Cheetah is how it copes.

Creating a nigh-unstoppable robot seems like a mistake, but luckily the new cheetah is small and (currently) harmless. The new mini cheetah is a scaled-down version of the Cheetah 3 that we ...

Now, a newly revamped robot from Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) dubbed the “mini cheetah” is vying to be among the fastest technologies of its kind when it comes to running.

You've got competition. The Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) recently unveiled a new video of its Mini Cheetah robot, demonstrating that the four-legged android can now dribble a soccer ...

And that includes robot dogs of course. Each Mini Cheetah weighs around 20 pounds (9 kilograms), is powered by 12 electrical motors and can reach speeds of around 5 mph (2.2 meters per second).
