A New, Open and Modular Platform for Research in Autonomous Four-Legged Robots
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper the design goals for a new, open and modular, four-legged robot platform are described that was developed in reaction to the open call for a standard platform issued by the RoboCup Federation in 2006. The new robot should have similar motion and sensing capabilities like the previously used Sony AIBO plus several new ones. The hardware and software should be open, modular and reconfigurable. The robot should be resonably priced and allow annually upgrades.
