The robot, dubbed Lightning, reached a peak speed of 14.5 meters per second during a preparatory test event for the second World Humanoid Robot Games, which opened in Beijing on Saturday.<\/p>\n

The performance surpassed the 9.58-second men\u2019s 100-metre world record set by Bolt at the World Athletics Championships in Berlin in 2009.<\/p>\n

Lightning also won the 21-km Beijing half marathon in April in 50 minutes and 26 seconds, faster than the elite men\u2019s human world-record pace.<\/p>\n

The robot stood 169 cm tall and had 95-cm legs at the half marathon. Researchers have since lengthened its legs by 10 cm to 1.05 meters ahead of the World Humanoid Robot Games, China Central Television reported.<\/p>\n
