The animal kingdom provides great insight for creating mobile robots. Locomotion is an important aspect of their functions, which can contribute to fundamental design principles. An example is a lightweight carbon-fiber foam composite cheetah that is built to move. The cheetah has an extremely flexible backbone that gives extra speed or force to its running motion. The greatest challenges in building this prototype is to get enough power from motor devices to generate desired speed.
