Design of a hopping mechanism using a voice coil actuator: Linear elastic actuator in parallel (LEAP)

ICRA 2016

Among legged robots, hopping and running robots are useful because they can traverse terrain at high speeds and are a benchmark platform for locomotion actuators; if an actuator can power a hopping robot, it can power a walking robot. We aim to create a hopping mechanism for a small-scale, one-legge

Toward a virtual neuromuscular control for robust walking in bipedal robots

IROS 2015poster

Walking controllers for bipedal robots have not yet reached human levels of robustness in locomotion. Imitating the human motor control might be an alternative strategy for generating robust locomotion in robots. We seek to control bipedal robots with a specific neuromuscular human walking model pro…
