This review paper provides a synthetic yet critical overview of the key biomechanical
principles of human bipedal walking and their current implementation in robotic platforms …

Individuals with poststroke hemiparesis often exhibit mobility deficits, particularly during
tasks requiring high lower limb torques. The sit-to-stand transition is consistently marked by …

In order for the lower limb exoskeletons to realize their considerable potential, a greater
understanding of optimal assistive performance is required. While others have shown …

Soft robots are one of the most significant recent evolutions in robotics. They rely on
compliant physical structures purposefully designed to embody desired characteristics …

In this paper, a new experimental legged robot for inspection and disaster response in social
infrastructures designed for humans, such as factories and power plants is presented. The …

The main contribution of this paper is the design and development of the lower body of
PANDORA (3D-Printed Autonomous humaNoid Developed for Open-source Research …

In this paper, a dual-arm robot system for high-speed manipulations, which is named LIMS2-
AMBIDEX and is developed to compete in the IROS2018 Robotic Challenge, is presented. It …

This paper presents an extension of previous model predictive control (MPC) schemes to the
stabilization of the time-varying divergent component of motion (DCM). To address the …

The Stewart platform is an entirely parallel robot with mechanical differences from typical
serial robotic manipulators, which has a wide application area ranging from flight and driving …

Abstract The Electric Series Compliant Humanoid for Emergency Response (ESCHER)
platform represents the culmination of four years of development at Virginia Tech to produce …
