Abstract
Though a legged robot has a high terrain adaptability as compared with a wheeled robot, its moving speed is considerably low in general. For attaining a high moving speed with a logged robot, a dynamically stable walking is a promising solution. However, the energy efficiency of a dynamically stable walking is generally lower than the efficiency of a stable gait such as a crawl gait. In this paper, energy consumption of two walking patterns for a trot gait is simulated through modeling a quadruped walking robot named TITAN-VIII.
