Sprinting Dinosaur-Bot

It’s official: bipedal robots have now surpassed the capabilities of us, bipedal humans.

Designed by scientists at the Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology, this bipedal robot, designed after the velociraptor, can reach speeds of up to 46 kilometers per hour(28.6 miles per hour) on a treadmill. And while “Raptor” is not yet faster than Boston Dynamic’s “Cheetah”, the world’s reigning fastest legged robot, it is already faster than Usain Bolt, the world’s fastest man, whose top speed is estimated to be 43.92 km/hr.
