MIT: "Cheetah, I need you to save mankind."
Cheetah: "I'm sorry Dave, I'm afraid I can't do that." 😌
It already looks like a happy puppy that runs around wildly. :)
Came here to say exactly that!
@@cris-1001 Same! 😁
.. when its not going after you, sure.
Got the zoomies!
too bad it will be equipped with automatic guns and impossible to escape from...
There's just something that is really interesting to me about a machine learning to walk, rather than just hard-coded AI...
Yeah it starts to make the system conciously sensing like us!!!
SkyNet is coming... :-)
fr though its so cool
The “half-speed” run looks like me trying to move quickly!
The lifelike movements of this thing are uncanny
100%, broken limbs fast zombie movements here
I love when he falls with the human designed controllers
looks like it's having a seizure or a cramp :c
Hits his foot and just dies
Did anyone else see a puppy that got the zoomies and act surprised when it ran into a wall?
the way the legs are slightly spread out is so funny😂
from SICP to robotic cheetahs..... what a journey
This is just a cat with tape on its paws
The way it moves, kinda reminds me of the facehugger in Aliens.
There’s something unsettling with the way it scurries through the gravel.
Very spider like, gave it a sinister edge. Yeah I felt that too. Let's hope we can build a great relationship with these things, they'll easily outsmart us in 10 years or so (if that)
Looks like it's rushing to find the closest bathroom...
This is both fascinating and terrifying to me.
DARPA funded...mostly terrifying.
The military contract has been put through and mini cheetahs have been released to the battlefield. The opposing forced hold their positions as small whines and clicks are heard in the distance. Then magnifies to a dull roar.... *squeak squeak squeak* hundreds, no thousands of tiny robots scramble across the horizon towards the encampment. A robot spider army races with malicious intent, nothing can stop them, especially not gravel.
Or the enemy's counter mini cheetahs... Let the epic battle begin!!
until they employ a 200 year old technique... called razor wire.
lmao especially not gravel
Probably still susceptible to an EMP.
@@renaissanceman5847 they figured that one out in the war of 2041, some cheetahs carry wooden boards with tracking marks on them so the others can find it and scramble over
Cheetah runs like Phoebe from friends
The dialogue in this scene is incredible
Amazing performance and power in the joints
wonderful. great job
This is amazing. Awesome work
wow! a little energy-inefficient, but very smooth!
Looks a bit drunk but it works so that's great!
Can't wait for the humanoid version of cheetah.
Makes me think of a puppy scrambling around
Very cool !
It reminded me of "Metalhead Is Upon Us" video, especially the part with one leg disabled
Feel relieved it’s still attached to a cord
it reminds me of an excited pug on gravel
I love it, still seems kinda clumsy, looking forward to the eventual economically agile end result. Perhaps the learning algorithm should also go hand in hand with AI design changes/optimizations
Incredible !! 😀
If you want skynet to happen, this is the way to do it.
No it isn't. Turn off the movies and learn about the real world.
Yeah, can u imagine those things chasing us around,
@@user-qjvqfjv im pretty sure he is concerned about the real world. Turn off the movies, the movies already predicted this. Maybe you should turn them on to see what happens when you start letting machines make their own decisions.
@@lucyharrelson3412 Movies predicted what? AI is still garbage. Machine sentience is a fantasy peddled by futurists who want to seem relevant and insightful. You're just an irrational, childish luddite who can't distinguish fantasy from reality.
@@lucyharrelson3412 💩💭🧟🤖💥🥴🥴
Oh goody! The Skynet puppy is learning to outrun us! Yay!
It's a cute robot, as long as you don't mind the idea of a human-sensing, automatic-firing version of this robot running towards you.
You could borrow some design ideas from dirt bikes and rally cars and drones. More specifically, it looks like smoothing out some of the jerk, snap, crackle, & pop might give better control and less wear. Totally awesome though. Damn amazing work.
Black Mirror's 'Metalhead' episode coming to life. Can't wait. :P
Imagine this coming @ you with a taser on it
I love how they show off the "Boston Dynamics" tentative trot control system 0:54
Play this at 2x speed and it looks like a terrifying robot dystopia
It's so cute!
I would think quadrupeds evolved one more major articulation on their limbs for a reason. If they ever add wrists or ankles, I wonder if a good bit of that clumsiness would go away?
It starts now.
We're all doomed.
It's fascinating to observe the learned behaviors. Quite life-like. You all are definitely onto something much bigger than it looks. Any chance of giant robots? I am a fan:)
Me too!
Imagine seeing that in the night
Awesome
It's incredible how a machine that mimics nature tricks the human brain.
* Takes it for walk. ‘No it doesn’t bite/ end up destroying humanity’
When the leash gets tangled under their leg and you have to untangle it.
"It's a trick, get an axe."
🎶"... I'm a happy, happy guy... I'm a happy, happy, happy guy..." 🎶
This cutie is more of a Lil' Derp than a cheetah.
I for one, would like to welcome our new robot overlords..
I want them to make this thing again but as a giant spider.
wow, nice job
Looks like a four legged spider 😄
Very interesting, and I feel like I'm seeing some asymmetry which reminds me that mammals' brains are two hemispheres working in concert rather than one monolithic sheet of neurons. If some symmetry were applied to the network I believe this could be leveled up in performance, and efficiency!
One is for muscle, the other is for telling the time
TFW you run like the wind, but still have to be plugged in.
Damnthose Enginieers. Involving so much energy and knowledge for those kind of toys. There are so many human with physical traids wich could be helped if they use this knowhow on that right way.
Wonder difference in energy consumption it needs compare to wheels?
The ball tip feet, has universal stand grip, but is far more complex maintaining to ML steps programing, plus the mech use more energy over leverage strain, without a pivit feet, as natures scientist engineer, evolution, did.
it needs paws and ankles
RAVAGE!!! - EJECT!!!!
In my Soundwave voice! They've made a Decepticon IRL!!!
Well, now I have something new to rule my nightmares
its hilarious that the thing didn't already learn to not run face-first into a wall
they''ll invent the wheel soon =)
Damm, nice
He behaves just like my French bulldog
It runs more like an excited dog than a cheetah
this is fun! :)
Here boy, wanna energizer snack?
Liked the presentation and the expertise this implies. One might guess that a few years down the road, a similar widget might be chasing down a tank with twenty pounds of C-4 strapped to is belly? Given the upset in Eastern Europe? Puts a different coat of paint on the Terminator series, don't it?
Looks a bit awkward, but if it works, it works.
Pretty good but the gate looks off. Maybe improvement? Or is it just the mechanics of the joints limitations.
Imagine walking down the street when _that thing_ rips around the corner and bolts at you with its scrambling gait.
I consider myself a very emotionally stable individual when it comes to irrational fears of things such as a robotic uprising. But something about the way that thing moves nearly throws it all out the window.
Looks really similar to the BlackMirror murderbots tbh
just throw water at it
Does anyone know if there is a CAD model available for my high school engineering students to look at? Doesn't have to be this particular one just any robot with high agility
I’m sure there’s something out there but you’ll have to look hard I think. They probably don’t just give designs like these away.
0:19 chasing its own tail
I'm curious about the stabilization of having a "head" and "tail". Tails in living organisms, and I would presume along with the head, help provide a "sense of location and velocity" crucial for balance. I have no idea, but is that even a thing?
Velocity and location can be tracked very accurately placing IMU's and cameras in any multiple places, the tail and head just as a "swinging mass" might be useful for balancing tho.
Accelerometer and a gyro
Imagine using this instead of a javelin missile, shit would be A LOT more scary to a russian tank, hearing this thing come out of the side of the road and come running straight towards your tank. Drops a mine and goes running away. When you look around, you also have mines in the back and in the sides.
The story in Gizmodo said this is a new gait. If so, what is it? What goes where when?
@0:55 - that's ED-209's grandfather
Here you see the robot killer dog from Fahrenheit 451
looks like you got dog agility and lizard running down pat
ok now we will have one of the with a c4 running twords us
Now if only there was a parameter in the reward function for not looking stupid...
0:54 when you hit your toe
Congrats to the team!! Can’t imagine what the tech will look like in 5-10 years!😁
Go watch Terminator or Black Mirror.
@@eladsgarr
And Tribes of Europa.
Probably going to look like you
That thing is gonna chase you one day. Didnt pay the bills? He's gonna get it done.
This is just high-speed walking. It could run even faster if it switched gait. A real cheetah doesn't just move its limbs faster. I look forward to seeing it when it learns to gallop.
I was looking for this comment (to me it looked like a clumsy trot).
At 1:12 it actually looks like it could learn to canter or gallop, with that asymmetrical movement
That amazing! I love how they just run after the robot with a laptop in hands. Great work!
Looks really creepy.
Imagine showing up to a dog park with one of these on leash then let it loose to run around.
it's impressive because it is like ai playing qwop. they don't have pressure sensor like we do.
I want one... no poop bag needed during walks.
What if observations from how it learned to move were used to enhance the kinematic model used to code the behavior (non-learned behavior), tested, then (if there's improvement) used as a base for the robot to learn from. (Basically perform assisted RL based on past experiences of the robot, and expertise/physics knowledge of the engineering team) ... I'd be interested in seeing the results ...
Great work !
The Human approach. Like the idea. Hopefully eventually they'll develop a kind of "memory" onto these robots, but I think their main focus is on movement, which probably takes from development of any other area. At least that's what I think..
i had the same thinking but it seems simulation based learning is far more efficient than in real life learning although less accurate
That's great but can the mini cheetah
still do this good after
a Learned Controller 6-pack.
Let's see the walk the white line test.
They're coming for us. (seeking revenge)
But can the HDMI dongle support 4k60fps?
Wow - Fabulous!
more spider than cheetah sometimes.
"RAMMING SPEED !!!"
These look eerily similar to the EMMI from Metroid Dread!
It's cute that you have to keep it on a lead. My cat would just run away.
