SLIDER 2.0: A Knee-less bipedal walking robot

SLIDER is a bipedal walking robot with a novel knee-less leg design developed in the Robot Intelligence Lab at Imperial College London. This non-anthropomorphic straight-legged design reduces the weight of the legs significantly whilst keeping the same functionality as anthropomorphic legs.

As a part of my MSc project, I developed the next version of the novel 10 DoF knee-less bipedal robot with reduced backlash, improved compliance and Designed for Assembly. I further developed the Whole Body Dynamics Controller for the Robot in ROS.
