Robotic Gymnast

Uploaded on May 22, 2009

The 3-link robotic gymnast (Robogymnast) is developed by Dr. Eldaw Eldukhri and colleagues at the Manufacturing Engineering Centre, Cardiff University, UK. It mimics a human gymnast swinging on a high bar using shoulder and hip joints. The high bar rotates freely on ball bearings. Currently research is underway to balance Robogymnast at the upright position. For more information visit:
