چکیده
This paper describes the mechanical design of the ARAMIES integration study, a four legged robot. It combines newly developed electronic, mechanical , and software components building a fully functional ambulating system. The mechanical concept aims at flexible kinematics and robustness of all components. Therefore, a modular construction kit with specially designed parts is used.

متن کاملKinematic and Gait Analysis Implementation of an Experimental Radially Symmetric Six-Legged Walking Robot
As a robot could be stable statically standing on three or more legs, a six legged walking robot can be highly flexible in movements and perform different missions without dealing with serious kinematic and dynamic problems. An experimental six legged walking robot with 18 degrees of freedom is studied and built in this paper. The kinematic and gait analysis formulations are demonstrated by an e...
