Feedback Control of Dynamic Bipedal Robot Locomotion

by Eric R. Westervelt, Christine Chevallereau, Jessy W. Grizzle, et al.

Book Overview

Bipedal locomotion is among the most difficult challenges in control engineering. Most books treat the subject from a quasi-static perspective, overlooking the hybrid nature of bipedal mechanics. Feedback Control of Dynamic Bipedal Robot Locomotion is the first book to present a comprehensive and mathematically sound treatment of feedback design for achieving stable, agile, and efficient locomotion in bipedal robots.
