ROBO 656 Legged Robots

This course will introduce the principles of legged locomotion, as they apply to robots and animals and control of legged robots. The course will cover modeling and dynamics of legged robots, trajectory planning for designing walking and running gaits, and common control strategies to achieve the planned motions. Projects will involve students applying knowledge on a simulated / real system (biped/quadruped robots).
