Walking Wheel

Published on Nov 14, 2012

A robotic walking wheel constructed to study the effect of the ankle joint on the sideways walking stability. The ankle joints of this walking wheel are based on the passive ankle joints of the bipedal robot Denise [1]. The axis of this ankle joint points forward and downward, which kinematically couples the lean and yaw movement. The kinematic coupling causes a stabilizing effect [2]. This robot was made as part of the final BSc project of Frank Pasteuning and Dani?l Karssen.
