VelociRoACH UC Berkeley Biomimetic Millisystems Lab Duncan Haldane Robot CloseIt may not be able to survive a nuclear blast, but this tiny VelociRoACH robot is pretty darn impressive. Although it's just 4-inches long, the VelociRoACH can run so fast that it covers 27 times its own body length in just one second - that's about a 10-minute mile - making it the fastest robot in the world for its size. The cardboard robot is the brainchild of Duncan Haldane and his colleagues at UC Berkeley's Biomimetic Millisystems Lab, who strive to mimic animal features such as movement and sensing in order to improve robotic capabilities....<br><br><a href='https://inhabitat.com/velociroach-a-tiny-super-fast-robot-cockroach-made-from-cardboard-that-can-save-lives/'>READ ARTICLE</a>1
