The Cheetah robot is the fastest legged robot in the World,
surpassing 29 mph, a new land speed record for legged robots. The
previous record was 13.1 mph, set in 1989 at MIT.
The Cheetah robot has an articulated back that flexes back and forth on
each step, increasing its stride and running speed, much like the animal
does. The current version of the Cheetah robot runs on a high-speed
treadmill in the laboratory where it is powered by an off-board
hydraulic pump and uses a boom-like device to keep it running in the
center of the treadmill. The next generation Cheetah robot, WildCat, is
designed to operate untethered. WildCat recently entered initial
testing and is scheduled for outdoor field testing later in 2013.
Cheetah robot development is funded by DARPA's Maximum Mobility and Manipulation program.
OUYA offers every game free to try because we believe you shouldn’t buy anything until you know you love it.
We love playing games on the TV and we want to bring the most
creative, innovative and engaging games back to the TV by allowing any
developer—big or small, experienced or new, paparazzi-famous or
up-and-coming—to easily build games for the big screen. Your favorite
and soon-to-be-favorite games in 1080p—what’s not to love?
Every game is free to try.
Yes, you heard right. We don’t think you should buy games or in-game
items unless you absolutely love them. If you fall head-over-heels for
one of them, all you’ll need is a valid credit card, debit card or
redeemable code. You’ll never be charged unless you choose to make a purchase.
A lot of games. Like, a lot.
Boasting both award-winning developers and up-and-comers, you’ll
always be on the cutting edge of game releases, as OUYA delivers every
genre you love, from shooters and action adventures to RPGs and puzzles.
And since OUYA downloads all its games directly, that means no compact
discs cluttering the coffee table. Hope you have some sick days stored
up.
Every hero needs a sidekick.
Conquer worlds and high scores with our thoughtfully crafted controller, enhancing every game thanks to its precise, responsive feedback,
a touchpad for new dimensions of gameplay and 15 buttons to mash as you
please. When you need a multiplayer fix, head online or connect up to four of these bad boys and let the games begin.
Much more than just gaming.
All that 1080p goodness isn’t just for gaming. OUYA brings all your favorite apps to the big screen, streaming shows, movies, and music directly into the living room. We’ve already partnered with Twitch.tv, Crunchyroll, iheartradio, TuneIn, XBMC, Plex and Flixster and are adding more to our list daily.
It’s what’s inside that matters.
We’ve outfitted OUYA with NVIDIA Tegra 3 processor, 1GB of RAM, and
8GB of internal storage (expandable via USB). So don’t hold back.
Whether you use WiFi or Ethernet, download games or stream your favorite
videos or music apps in beautiful 1080p HD. And since OUYA is the first totally open video game console, we welcome you to unscrew it and have a look around.
Start coding. Get famous.
If you’re the kind of person that has that killer game locked inside you, you can build games for OUYA, too. Our tools are free and come with every OUYA—no more excuses.
