GoPro View of Cheetah Run - Cincinnati Zoo

Interestingly cool! Especially the part about the head not moving. This is what it looks like when you strap a GoPro on the world's fastest land animal...

Savanna from the Zoos Cat Ambassador allows the trainers to put a harness that holds a GoPro on her so we can get the cheetahs view running full speed. We think this might be the first time this has been accomplished with a cheetah.

MIT cheetah robot lands the running jump

One small step for mankind, one giant leap for robots... Back in September we featured the Robotic Cheetah that could run, well, just like a real cheetah. Now those fine folks over at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, have 'programmed' this robotic cheetah to successfully jump and land over objects...

Whoa! Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) is trying to make a robot that runs fast like a cheetah! We're not sure if that's a good thing or not!...
