Why Biped Locomotors? Mobility (walking, obstacle overcoming,
ascending/descending stairs)
Acceptability (locomotion style)
Why Parallel Leg Mechanisms? Biological inspiration from human leg (musculoskeletal system in leg region)
Most biped locomotors with serial architecture (ASIMO, HPR, HUBO, Atlas series, etc.)
Parallel architecture with better performances (dynamic behaviour, accuracy, ratio of payload to own weight)
Potentiality with parallel architecture NOT fully investigated (ONLY WL-16 series)
Why 3-DOF Parallel Leg Mechanism? Achievable back-to-front, lateral, and up-to-down motions Simpler structure and kinematics Larger workspace and convenient control
