Biped Robot

Human society is of two legged creatures and so everything around them is designed for bipeds. For us, walking seems to be such a simple idea. But it is a highly complex process, where a single step requires us to use nerves signals from our entire body to figure out the position of the foot, the slope of the ground, and the relative location of the rest of the body. The brain then performs numerous calculations in a second to determine how to maintain balance and to have dozens of muscles make tiny corrections to keep one upright.

It is of great concern and importance when we are thinking about future of robotics because for robots to assist or replace humans in many tasks, one is looking for a perfect biped movement.

It is a matter of pride that three students viz-a viz Mr. Harsh Joon, Mr.Aditya (both from B.Sc.(H) Physics II yr) and Mr. Mridul Jain (B.Sc(H) Electronics, IIyr) raised the bar of robotics club by successfully being able to develop a Bluetooth controlled biped moving robot exhibiting six degrees of freedom. The walking style of humans with perfect balance was replicated and demonstrated in this robot. It is a perfect example of how the students applied mechatronics to achieve this arduous task during summer vacation. Extending this success, our aim is to develop a humanoid which is a complex technological challenge but we at robotics club are very optimistic that students with their innovations and untiring efforts will definitely achieve this.
