Highly dynamic robotic leg for non-biomimetic walking robots

Published in Actuator Conference, 2022

Due to a predisposition of DNA to generate symmetric anatomy, there are no tripedal animals in nature. Yet, threelegged walking might be the sweet spot between the energy efficiency of bipeds and the stability of quadrupeds. This paper presents the non-biomimetic leg for the TriPed, a novel three-legged mobile walking robot that aims to study the advantages and disadvantages of three-legged walking.
