On Exploration of Mechanical Insights into Bipedal Walking: Gait Characteristics, Energy Efficiency, and Experimentation

Human walking is dynamic, stable, and energy efficient. To achieve such remarkable legged locomotion in robots, engineers have explored bipedal robots developed based on two paradigms: trajectory-controlled and passive-based walking. Trajectory-controlled bipeds often deliver energy-inefficient gait...
