Massachusetts Institute of Technology(MIT) researches have released the newest developments in their robotic cheetah. The robotic cheetah has been in the works for years but up until recently was tethered and powered externally. The original version was able to go approximently 14mph, but the constant power leash limited options. Now the internally powered cheetah is capable of jumping obstacles over a foot high, and running up to 10mph. The updated cheetah is powered with an electric motor, and is the first time an electrically powered robot can run and jump over such obstacles.
