Cassie, the robot, clocked the historic time of 24.73 seconds at the Whyte Track and Field Center, starting from a standing position and returning to that position after the sprint, with no falls. This incredible achievement was accomplished through robot learning and almost a year of simulation, condensed down to a matter of weeks.
Cassie was invented at the Oregon State University College of Engineering and produced by Agility Robotics. Through this work Cassie has established a Guinness World Record for the fastest 100 meters by a bipedal robot.
