We’re delighted to see our research broadly shared across UT media channels! Thank you and Hook’em!
Mobility around Humans with Mercury
This video shows our human-size bipedal robot, Mercury, which has passive ankles, thus relying solely on hip and knee actuation for balance. This capability is not only very difficult to accomplish but enables the robot to rapidly respond to disturbances like those produced when walking around humans.
