Abstract

Bipedal robots have generally either been designed for static motions or dynamic maneuvers, but the ability for operation in the real world in both realms is becoming increasingly relevant. In this work we explain the abilities of a human scale bipedal robot with tendon-coupled knee and ankle joints that is able to balance, step, hop and run several steps in a two dimensional plane.
