The Mini Cheetah is a quadruped robot being developed by MIT. In the newly released video, the mini cheetah is about the size of a medium-sized dog, but it shows agility by moving the motorized joints freely. It was also released at the time of its first release in February, but the mini cheetah can also back dumble.
In this video, nine mini cheetah robots appear and show their athletic abilities, such as doing back-dumble or stealing a soccer ball through wireless control. You can also see a robot walking on the lawn with a loud noise at 9 km/h.
The characteristics of the mini cheetah are robustness and ease. You can expect light movements such as backdumble, which rotates the weight of 9kg using powerful parts. Each of the four legs was equipped with three electric motors. These motors are commercial products and can be easily replaced with new ones.
The mini cheetah itself is for research purposes, so it is not used anywhere. However, he is planning to conduct research for the use of robot technology in connection with other research projects. In the future, disaster relief, nuclear reactors, mines, and other dangerous places may carry out human work. Related information can be found here .
