Demonstration of a control framework capable of generating dynamic quadrupedal gaits, employing bioinspired bean-shaped trajectories at the toes, and active compliance control at the actuated joints.
Laelaps I quadruped robot simulation.
The quadruped robot Laelaps trotting at 3 m/s using longer legs.
