This bioinspired robot developed in the University of Maryland's Maryland Robotics Center mimics the walking and swimming gaits of a terrapin.

The Maryland Robotics Center is an interdisciplinary research center housed in the Institute for Systems Research (link is external) within the A. James Clark School of Engineering (link is external). The mission of the center is to advance robotic systems, underlying component technologies, and applications of robotics through research and educational programs that are interdisciplinary in nature and based on a systems approach.
