Artificial fish inspired by the fastest fish in the world can allow humans to swim at "speed".

Students in Sydney and London have built amphibian prosthetics, allowing the operator to run in the sand and swim at speed on the beach, according to the DVICE website.

Murrmans are designed with separate toes, allowing users to balance on uneven terrain such as the beach, and have knobs to increase the contact area when running on soft sand.

In the water environment, the Murrmans have fins attached to the upper portion, which guides the flow along the prosthesis and creates thrust to support the swimmer faster than the deformed person.

The Murr-ma design team wants to create a special prosthesis designed for water sports and high-performance beaches, such as windsurfing and beach volleyball.

The carbon footprint not only supports the weight of the body, it also produces energy while running and walking.

The Murrmans' fins are inspired by the fish's dorsal fin, the champion of speed, who can swim 100m in less than 5 seconds.
