    Le Black Panther est l'un des robots quadrupèdes les plus rapides au monde (100 mètres en 10 secondes)
    Picture MUST credit: Mirror Me A robotic dog that can run 100 meters in 10 seconds has been unveiled. The Black Panther 2.0 is now one of the world's fastest quadruped robots. The researchers took cues from the joints and paws of animals like black panthers and hopping desert rodents known as jerboas. These were used to improve the robot's high-speed movement in terms of strength, flexibility, power, precision and fluidity. The bot fitted with knee joint springs that act as shock absorbers To overcome the challenge of the robot’s legs breaking, researchers developed carbon-fibre versions inspired by the jerboa’s limbs. These increased stiffness by 135 percent with only a 16 percent increase in weight. The robot dog is also equipped with "running shoes" modelled after the claws of cheetahs, which enhances its grip performance by 200 percent. These are pads with tiny spikes to help with grip. Black Panther 2.0 is a collaboration team between China’s Zhejiang University and a Chinese startup called Mirror Me.

    A robotic dog that can run 100 meters in 10 seconds has been unveiled.
    The Black Panther 2.0 is now one of the world's fastest quadruped robots.
    The researchers took cues from the joints and paws of animals like black panthers and hopping desert rodents known as jerboas.
    These were used to improve the robot's high-speed movement in terms of strength, flexibility, power, precision and fluidity.
    The bot fitted with knee joint springs that act as shock absorbers
    To overcome the challenge of the robot’s legs breaking, researchers developed carbon-fibre versions inspired by the jerboa’s limbs.
    These increased stiffness by 135 percent with only a 16 percent increase in weight.
    The robot dog is also equipped with "running shoes" modelled after the claws of cheetahs, which enhances its grip performance by 200 percent.
    These are pads with tiny spikes to help with grip.
    Black Panther 2.0 is a collaboration team between China’s Zhejiang University and a Chinese startup called Mirror Me.

    Huygens found that when two pendulums are connected by a common support, they will eventually synchronise their motions.
