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 ...

Four-legged robots, also known as quadrupedal robots, have advantageous characteristics, including the ability to rapidly walk on challenging terrains and keep a low center of gravity. Some four ...

A team of researchers at ETH Zurich recently introduced a new reinforcement learning–based model that could allow four-legged robots to interact with their surroundings in innovative ways ...

Four-legged creatures, both living and robotic, have historically had a hard time climbing ladders - until now. Researchers at Tokyo Metropolitan University have created a quadruped robot capable ...

Literally titled, "BigDog Weaponized," this creepy AF video shows the four-legged robot (with bull horns attached) slowly and menacingly trotting towards a "cape." These things are walking in ...

This innovative construction allows the robot to lock its wheels, enabling it to switch seamlessly between walking and climbing like a standard four-legged robot. This dual-mode locomotion ...

Scientists at MIT's Biometrics Robotics Lab have now trained their robotic Cheetah to see and jump over hurdles as it runs, making this the first four-legged robot to run and jump over obstacles ...

A four-legged “robot dog” is the newest member of the Los Angeles Police Department after the City Council voted 8-4 to approve its acquisition on Tuesday. The robot - a quadruped unmanned ...

Ultimately, it’s an interesting take on robot locomotion. Rather than walking with two legs or four legs and dynamic stability, it takes full advantage of static stability instead. We’ve seen ...

A four-legged “robot dog” is the newest member of the Los Angeles Police Department after the City Council voted 8-4 to approve its acquisition on Tuesday. Eric Spillman reports for the KTLA 5 ...
