What’s better than a pretty nice legged robot? One with an alternate SDK version that opens up expensive features, of course. The author didn’t like that the original SDK only came as pre-compiled ...

Abstract: This paper introduces a new robust, dynamic quadruped, the MIT Cheetah 3. Like its predecessor, the Cheetah 3 exploits tailored mechanical design to enable simple control strategies for ...

The robotic cheetah developed by the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) just keeps getting more advanced. Since its debut in 2015, the four-legged, dog-sized robot known as “Mini Cheetah” has ...

Researchers trained a Mini Cheetah robot as a soccer goalie and it stops 87.5% of goals, better than the best players in the world. When MIT first introduced their Mini Cheetah robots, they showed off ...

After hours of testing, I'm thrilled to announce that you can now run the MIT Mini Cheetah in Gazebo using https://t.co/2URXjJ01j6. #goROS pic.twitter.com/fp344m7VbQ ...
