A biped robot is a robot resembling the human body in shape. The design may be for functional purposes, such as interacting with human tools and environments, for experimental purposes, such as the study of bipedal locomotion, or for other purposes. In general, humanoid robots have a torso, a head, two arms, and two legs, though some humanoid robots may replicate only part of the body, for example, from the waist up. Some humanoid robots also have heads designed to replicate human facial features such as eyes and mouths. Androids are humanoid robots built to aesthetically resemble humans.
TALOS research: torque-controlled locomotion for humanoids in unknown environments
In recent research the team at PAL Robotics and our French partners, TOWARD and Dynamograde lab, using a new framework, enabled the biped robot, TALOS to navigate and climb up
