Biomimetics MIT is the Biomimetic Robotics Lab within the Department of Mechanical Engineering at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT).

The lab was founded in 2009 by Professor Sangbae Kim, who serves as its director.

The lab's research focuses on drawing inspiration from biology to understand the principles of human and animal movement through rigorous engineering design.

The lab's most famous achievement is the MIT Cheetah — a quadruped robot inspired by the fastest land animal on Earth, powered by electric motors, which has attracted widespread attention from international media.

The lab's research goal is to accomplish advanced tasks through biomimetic design.
