Quadruped Robot Running With a Bounding Gait

: Scout II, an autonomous four-legged robot with only one actuator per compliant leg is described. We demonstrate the need to model the actuators and the power source of the robot system carefully in order to obtain experimentally valid models for simulation and analysis. We describe a new, simple running controller that requires minimal task level feedback, yet
