The horse's secret runs fast

Scientists observed stilts like horse legs using energy and muscle strength to push the animal forward.

Researcher Alan Wilson of the University of Royal Veterinary (UK) explains that fast-running horses can bring their legs forward quickly in a position to prepare for the next stride. This makes it more difficult and slower for horses with large and long legs.

About 80% of fast-running horses are currently related to the invincible 18th-century horse named eclipse. Wilson directed his research on the foot shape of the eclipse horse and other horses on the computer. Since then, published data on body structure, how to move when running in the form of mathematical parameters. The results of this study will help design faster and faster moving robots in the future.
