The Robot of Theseus: A modular robotic testbed for legged locomotion
Karthik Urs, Jessica Carlson, Aditya Srinivas Manohar +5
Robotic models are useful for independently varying specific features, but most quadrupedal robots differ so greatly from animal morphologies that they have minimal biomechanical r…
Design and Characterization of 3D Printed, Open-Source Actuators for Legged Locomotion
Karthik Urs, Challen Enninful Adu, Elliott J. Rouse +1
Impressive animal locomotion capabilities are mediated by the co-evolution of the skeletal morphology and muscular properties. Legged robot performance would also likely benefit fr…
Alternative Metrics to Select Motors for Quasi-Direct Drive Actuators
Karthik Urs, Challen Enninful Adu, Elliott J. Rouse +1
Robotic systems for legged locomotion -- including legged robots, exoskeletons, and prosthetics -- require actuators with low inertia and high output torque. Traditionally, motors…
