Contents
Legged robots help researchers understand human and animal locomotion. Furthermore, legged robots have many different applications, for example to aid in dangerous environments and in rehabilitation. Active prosthetics and exoskeletons improve gait of people with a disability, like a spinal cord injury or an amputation. The goal of this seminar is to become familiar with different algorithms and analysis methods that are used for legged robotics. Important concepts here are the energetics and the stability. Robots should be energy efficient, in the case of an exoskeleton to not lose battery power for a day. Obviously, stability is important to avoid falls. Each student will perform a literature review of a specific concept related to robot locomotion. The concepts can be chosen from a list, or the student can propose their own topic.
