This paper presents our new 25-DoF humanoid walking robot LOLA. The goal of our
research is to realize a fast, human-like walking motion (target speed: 5 km/h). Furthermore …

A crucial part in biped walking motion generation is to ensure dynamic feasibility, which
takes the form of a nonlinear constraint in the general case. Our proposition is to bound the …

The effects of mechanical system dynamics are often disregarded in the design process of
humanoid robots. Sophisticated control methods may compensate for some limitations of the …

Most existing transtibial prostheses are energetically passive. Their ankle joints are either
rigid or rotatable in a limited range, and their feet are single-segment structures without toe …

The paper presents the performance enhanced humanoid robot LOLA which is currently
being manufactured. The goal of the project is the realization of a fast, human-like walking …

In this paper we present the humanoid robot LOLA, its mechatronic hardware design,
simulation and real-time walking control. The goal of the LOLA-project is to build a machine …

For humanoid robots to fully realize their biped potential in a three-dimensional world and
step over, around or onto obstacles such as stairs, appropriate and efficient approaches to …
