Intriguing and thoughtful discussion with Prof.Jie Yin, the head of applied Mechanics of material lab at NC state university. The Fastest soft robot inspired by the cheetah. The new class of soft robots, called "Leveraging Elastic Instabilities for Amplified Performance" (LEAP), can reach speeds of up to 2.7 body lengths per second-more than three times faster-at a low frequency of approximately 3Hz. I hope you would enjoy the episode.
