The bounding gait for the Platform for Ambulating Wheels (PAW), a new and unique hybrid wheeled-leg system is presented here. Two hypotheses are tested and discussed: first, that ...

— This paper extends the authors’ previous results on fault tolerant locomotion of the hexapod robot on even terrain by relaxing nonoverlap of redefined reachable cells of leg...
The spring-loaded inverted pendulum (SLIP) is a simple, passivelyelastic two-degree-of-freedom model for legged locomotion that describes the center-of-mass dynamics of many anima...
Abstract. To realize dynamically stable walking for a quadruped walking robot, the combination of the trajectory planning of the body and leg position (feedforward control) and the...
Legged robots are useful in tasks such as search and rescue because they can effectively navigate on rugged terrain. However, it is difficult to design controllers for them that ...
