〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://lablog.engin.umich.edu/2011/09/another-feat-for-worlds-fastest-robot.html )〕 MABEL (robot) is a robot engineered in 2009 by researchers at the University of Michigan, which is well known for being the world's fastest bipedal (two-legged) robot with knees. MABEL is able to reach speeds of up to 3.6 m/s (6.8mph).〔 The name MABEL is an acronym for Michigan Anthropomorphic Biped With Electronic Legs.〔The creators include J.W. Grizzle, Jonathan Hurst, Hae-Won Park, Koushil Sreenath, and Alireza Ramezani.〔 MABEL weighs 143 pounds (65 kilograms) with most of its weight being in the top torso area. The legs contain large springs and are jointed to form knees. The robot is attached to a safety boom for lateral stability.〔 ==Motivations for MABEL== * Create a robot similar to that of “the RABBIT” (a French bipedal walking robot), but with certain modifications * Make a robot that can run fast, adapt to terrain, and use energy efficiently * Innovate efficient powertrain and control feedback mechanisms * Promote outreach for University of Michigan College of Engineering 〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「MABEL (robot)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
