Flame

Flame is a biped humanoid robot developed by Delft Biorobotics Lab. Standing 1.3 meters tall and weighing 15 kilograms, Flame has advanced actuated ankles, knees and hips.

This biped humanoid can walk sideways and handle an 8-millimeter step-down disturbance. Flame is the product of Delft Biorobotics Lab’s synthesis of 3D stable walk combined with a sideways foot placement strategy based on inertial sensors’ info.

Despite the successful development of Flame, Delft University is still having an ongoing robotics research with a goal of having a wide walking speed range - both slow and fast, smooth starting and fluid-motion stopping.

Additionally, a larger ground disturbance-tackling ability is part of this ongoing research endeavor.

Features:

• Advanced walking ability even on uneven grounds with its 8-millimeter step-down disturbance handling ability
• One-of-a-kind elastically actuated joints for the hips, knees, and hips
• With integrated inertial sensors for an effective 3D gait execution
• Faster walking speed at 1.62 kilometers per hour
