MEAM Ph.D. Thesis Defense: “Controlling Contact Transitions for Dynamic Robots”
Legged robots, robotic manipulators, and their combined embodiment as humanoid robots have received considerable attention across both academia and industry. However, with few notable exceptions, state-of-the-art demonstrations are significantly less dynamic than their biological counterparts. A considerable challenge towards achieving more dynamic robots lies within controlling contact interactions with their environment. Legged robots undergoing impacts […]
