The aim of this project is optimize and experiment with a type of actuation for a robotic leg where all the motors are attached to the body and their powers transmitted to the joints of the leg witn a dual crankshaft mechanism. This mechanism is envisioned as a possible alternative for one of our walking machine.The intern will be in charge of implementing the kinematic, static, and possibly dynamic (if needed) equations modeling the mechanism. Then, simulations and optimizations will be conducted. If the results appear promising, a prototype will be manufactured and experimented with.
