DEXTER is a dynamically balancing robot with air cylinder-driven joints. This robot moves a little stiffly, but it learns how to walk with a wide range of abilities.
Delft Biorobotics Laboratory aims at developing safe, efficient and novel robotic systems with biology related applications and/or biologically inspired designs, such as robotic arms that can be used for rehabilitation and bipedal walking machines.
Based in Kingston, Ontario, Queen's University is a well-known Canadian public research univer-sity. Students at the university have developed the FANUC F-200i Robot and addressed the fail-ure analysis of the DEXTER parallel manipulator.
Athlete Robot has flexible legs that allow it to run and jump. Compressed air and elastic prosthetic blades make this robot capable of human-like movement.
Developed at the Delft Biorobotics Lab, Baps is an affordable autonomous 3D Walking robot that is known for its simple, low-power design. Baps is based on the principle of ballistic walking, which involves walking with free, unpowered movements.
Vecna robotics and Beijing Institute of Technology developed a humanoid called BEAR. It has a very strong body, and can lift an injured victim for a proper life-saving procedure.
Developed at the Delft Biorobotics Lab, Bob is a 3D Walking robot that is equipped with actuated ankles and knees. The passive dynamic biped lacks controls and is known for its 3D dynamic simulation as well as stability analysis.
Centaurob I is a bipedal walking robot. It utilizes two Steward Platforms, resulting in precise, dynamic motions. Its universal joints and stepper motors help it to move efficiently.
ROBO-GARAGE developed a small humanoid called Chroino. It can walk naturally like a human using SHIN-Walk technology, and can kick a ball, stand up and balance itself.
The Korea Institute of Science and Technology and Samsung Electronics has created another robot: the Mahru III. A prototype robot for future household companions, it is energy efficient and lightweight thanks to its Computer Aided Engineering analysis.…
The Trilobite 2.0 is a vast improvement over the original. Not only does it recharge itself, a smart sensor allows it to map an entire room as it cleans the edges. It can even be used in difficult areas such as under furniture. Trilobite 2.0 has an electronic…
