Abstract

This paper presents developmental design of a simple bipedal walking robot. The robot replicates the walking style of a human particularlywalking upright. The robotisbuilt with light-weight Aluminium sheets which act as the structural members and also housing the servos. Acontroller using EyeBot produces intelligent commands to the servos for walking and kicking. The robot is controlled in open loop utilizing lateral balancing feature for maintaining walking and kicking. This work enables us to realize an insight into design and development of a mechatronic system using the concept of synergetic unison of electronics, mechanical, and computation engineering fields.
