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...
Planning for real robots to act in dynamic and uncertain environments is a challenging problem. A complete model of the world is not viable and an integration of deliberation and ...

Legged robots display a characteristically periodic motion. Measuring and tracking this motion has traditionally been performed using general inertial measurement techniques. While...
In autonomous robotics, so-called artificial potential fields are often used to plan and control the motion of a physical robot. In this paper, we propose to use an artificial e...
: This paper describes experiments with an electrically actuated one legged hopping robot, the ARL Monopod. While a spring-mass system, comprised of the leg spring and the body mas...
