This paper describes the mechanism and vertical jumping pattern of a one-legged jumping robot that can mimic the muscular and skeletal system of a human leg. The jumping robot has a waist, a thigh, a shin, a foot, and a toe. Its weight is 12.34 kg, and its height is 1010 mm. It has a total of 13 actuators: 10 mono-articular types and 3 bi-articular types. Two kinds of pneumatic artificial muscles...
This paper describes the mechanism of a one-legged jumping robot that can mimic the muscular and skeletal system of a human leg. The jumping robot has a waist, a thigh, a shin, and a foot. It weighs 6.5 [kg], and is 594 [mm] tall. It has a total of 9 actuators: 6 mono-articular types and 3 bi-articular types. A pneumatic artificial muscle actuator that can expand radially and contract axially is used...
This paper describes the mechanism of a biped humanoid robot, KBHR (Kanagawa Biped Robot-2), that has large moveable angles similar to humans'. The KBHR has 29 degrees of freedom (DOF) (two 6 DOF legs, a 3 DOF waist and two 7 DOF arms). Also, an online walking pattern generation method for a biped humanoid robot based on preview control is proposed. Depending on the walking parameters (step length,...
This paper describes the mechanism and the control system of a seahorse robot that is able to express happiness, sadness and anger. MP motion sensors (Pyroelectric Motion Detection Sensor), force sensors, and color sensors are employed to express emotion. The seahorse robot consists of a base, a body and a head. It has 4 DOFs (2 DOFs in the head and 2 DOFs in the body) and it weighs 800 [g]. Emotion...
