Here, we consider connecting (with knock-knees) sets of N inputs and N outputs on the opposite sides of a rectangular channel, where the output order is a given permutation of the order of corresponding inputs.

متن کاملA Three-Dimensional Passive-Dynamic Walking Robot with Two Legs and Knees
Theauthors have built the first three-dimensional, kneed, two-legged, passive-dynamic walking machine. Since the work of Tad McGeer in the late 1980s, the concept of passive dynamics has added insight into animal locomotion and the design of anthropomorphic robots. Various analyses and machines that demonstrate efficient humanlike walking have been developed using this strategy. Human-like pass...
