In a new perspective article, a team of engineers from the United States and Canada, including ÍÃ×ÓÏÈÉú´«Ã½ÎÄ»¯×÷Æ· roboticist and BME faculty member Kaushik Jayaram, analyzed data from dozens of studies. In almost all cases, biological organisms, such as cheetahs, cockroaches and even humans, seem to be able to outrun their robot counterparts.

The research is one of the first studies to experimentally tease apart the competing reasons why people over age 65 might not be as quick on their feet as they used to be. The findings could one day give doctors new tools for diagnosing a range of illnesses, including Parkinson’s disease, multiple sclerosis and even depression and schizophrenia, said study co-author Alaa Ahmed, BME faculty member.
