The extremely light boots are just like springs inspired by the Achilles tendon (跟腱) of ostriches (鸵鸟) or Kangaroos, lending the wearer more force while running, with a spring in their stride(大步；步幅)． The boots are invented by Keahi Seymour, who has always been fascinated by the effortless run of ostriches (鸵鸟), the fastest running birds on the planet, with a top speed of 45mph. He has been working on this kind of shoes for several years, producing dozens of prototypes (模型) in the process. “The bionic boots may be the transportation in the future，” he explained. “They are meant to make a man run faster, inspired by the fast land animals. The boots are made up of a carbon fiber composite exoskeleton (外骨骼), and also aircraft-grade aluminum. So the lightest materials were applied to providing the most efficient form of transportation.” Seymour recently showed the capabilities (能力) of his latest version of bionic boots at the Maker Faire in New York. They can help anyone reach speeds of up to 25mph, which is the same speed as a slowly moving car. In comparison, Usain Bolt, the worlds fastest man, has clocked a top speed of 27.44mph.
