Mechanical engineers at the UCLA School of Engineering have created the world’s fastest walking humanoid robot, believed to be the first designed in an academic setting capable of running, according to a recent statement from the school.

Named “Artemis,” for Advanced Robotic Technology for Enhanced Mobility and Improved Stability, the robot is said to be only the third of its kind, according to the Robotics and Mechanisms Laboratory at UCLA, which designed it.
