Scientists at Estonia’s Tallinn University of Technology (TalTech) have developed a new set of robotic feet that can help four-legged robots navigate difficult terrains that are muddy or slippery.
By placing actuators close to the hip, sophisticated prototypes like MIT’s miniCheetah decreased leg inertia, and dynamic walking was further enhanced by algorithms like Whole-Body Control (WBC) and ...
The walker actually makes use of three independent four-legged Strider mechanisms ... and direction of each of the mechanisms lets the robot move in any direction, similar to his ball-wheeled ...
