As a Mechanical Engineering Senior Design Project, ME 450, we gave the team of Allison Ryan, Matthew Byrne, Shane Larkin, and Philip Vanderwall the challenge of designing a set of feet for MABEL. They met the challenge brilliantly. They had three months to evaluate various options, arrive at a final design, have parts manufactured, and assemble the feet. After an extremely minimal modification to the nominal walking controller, MABEL walked perfectly on her new feet. You can observe MABEL executing heel-strike and toe-off just as a human does. In fact, you can see a camerman walking next to the robot and ask yourself, who is walking better? The ME 450 team was supervised by Hae-Won Park, a PhD candidate in Mechanical Engineering.
I really want to see that robot from robocop become a reality
the one with 2 machine guns in his hands XD
