— Lie group symmetry in a mechanical system can lead to a dimensional reduction in its dynamical equations. Typically, the symmetries that one exploits are intrinsic to the mecha...
— Two feedback controllers that induce stable running gaits on a three-degree-of-freedom asymmetric hopper, termed the Asymmetric Spring Loaded Inverted Pendulum (ASLIP), see Fig...
—This paper presents a new method developed for the optimal design of microrobotic compliant mechanisms. It is based on a flexible building block method, called FlexIn, which use...
— In this paper we will present the architecture of the planar biped robot “RunBot”. It has been developed on the basis of three hierarchical levels: Biomechanical, Local and...
