Cornell Ranger robot has recently set an unofficial world record by walking nonstop for 45 laps - a little over 9 kilometers or 5.6 miles - around the Barton Hall running track. Developed by a team of students working with Andy Ruina, Cornell professor of theoretical and applied mechanics, the robot walked until it finally stopped and fell backward, perhaps because its battery ran down.
