Control of underactuated planar pronking through an embedded spring-mass Hopper template
(2011)Autonomous use of legged robots in unstructured, outdoor settings requires dynamically dexterous behaviors to achieve sufficient speed and agility without overly complex and fragile mechanics and actuation. Among such ... -
Design and operation of MinIAQ: an untethered foldable miniature quadruped with individually actuated legs
(IEEE (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers), 2017)This paper presents the design, development, and basic operation of MinIAQ, an origami-inspired, foldable, untethered, miniature quadruped robot. Instead of employing multilayer composite structures similar to most ... -
Quadrupedal bounding with an actuated spinal joint
(2011)Most legged vertebrates use flexible spines and supporting muscles to provide auxiliary power and dexterity for dynamic behaviors, resulting in higher speeds and additional maneuverability during locomotion. However, most ... -
Reactive footstep planning for a planar spring mass hopper
(2009)The main driving force behind research on legged robots has always been their potential for high performance locomotion on rough terrain and the outdoors. Nevertheless, most existing control algorithms for such robots ... -
Reactive planning and control of planar spring-mass running on rough terrain
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, 2012)An important motivation for work on legged robots has always been their potential for high-performance locomotion on rough terrain. Nevertheless, most existing control algorithms for such robots either make rigid assumptions ...
