The Cheetah robot created at MIT [31] was the first robot capable of doing a backflip. It is a lightweight and springy robot that can perform a range of motions such as walking right-side up or upside down. Apart from that, it can walk two times faster than a normal human being on uneven terrain. The robot has four legs, with each leg consisting of three low-cost motors that can be easily replaced, and gives a wide range of motion with low inertia and high torque design. It can recover from an unexpected force. Also, its balancing capability is far better than other robots and can easily and instantly balance itself. So, one can say that it is the only state-of-the-art balancing and backflipping robot present till now [32].
