Optimization and learning for rough terrain legged locomotion
We present a novel approach to legged locomotion over rough terrain that is thoroughly rooted in optimization. This approach relies on a hierarchy of fast, anytime algorithms to p...

Control of a Bow Leg Hopping Robot
The bow leg hopper is a new design for a locomoting system with a resilient, flexible leg. It features a passive stance phase and natural pitch stability. It is controlled with ac...

A Hybrid Motion Model for Aiding State Estimation in Dynamic Quadrupedal Locomotion
— Trotting and galloping allow a quadruped to rapidly traverse rough terrain. Modeling this motion, which is only dynamically stable, is of importance for legged robot operation ...
