Abstract:This study shows an enhanced leg module built for HRP-2, a new humanoid robots platform developed during phase two of the Humanoid Robotics Project (HRP), a three year initiative financed by Japan's Ministry of Economy, Trade, and Industry (MET/) from J 998FY to 2002FY. HRP-1, the humanoid robotics platform created in phase I of HRP, will have its biped locomotion abilities upgraded so that HRP-2 can cope with harsh terrains and avoid any injury to the robot's body caused by tipping over. The mechanics and specifications of the leg module, the electrical system, and the modelling results used to decide specifications, and some experiment findings are described in this work.
