Abstract
  • Legged locomotion in robotics benefits from engineered hardware dynamics such as configuration-dependent, nonlinear transmissions and compliance. This thesis introduces a novel cable driven leg that allows the design of configuration-dependent transmission ratios while also permitting the addition of compliance in line with the cables to achieve compliant legged locomotion. The end-effector compliance is derived and the design space of the compliance is defined. A process for designing nonround pulleys is presented, along with demonstrating the design of a balanced compliance in a robotic leg.
