Scientists Look to Cockroaches as Biomimicry Solution for Super Powered Running Robots

It's generally agreed that cockroaches are a feat of evolution, and they certainly move incredibly well on their six legs. Which is why researchers at Oregon State University are using them as a source of inspiration for the world's first legged robot to be able to run easily over rough terrain. But it isn't just the capability of getting over rocky areas or moving quickly that scientists want to mimic - it's also a cockroach's brainless ability to zip from here to there that the researchers are after.
