Mugatu bipedal robot walks in a lightweight way, with a height of only 18.5 cm

According to IT House news on December 23, although existing bipedal robots can perform tasks such as crossing uneven terrain, their mechanical structures are usually very complex, so they are larger

The scientific research team at Carnegie Mellon University recently developed the Mugatu robot, which adopts a new walking mechanism. Currently the height is compressed to 18.5 cm (7.3 inches). In the future, it hopes to further simplify the compression and reduce it to Within 4 cm (1.6 inches).

Mugatu's design is inspired by the popular Wilson Walkie of the 1930s, an unpowered wooden doll. When the puppet is placed at the top of the ramp, use gravity to drag the legs back and forth to the bottom

Mugatu uses hip motors to simulate bipedal movement. The robot initially remains standing still with its legs side by side. Then, the motor drives the left leg to swing, causing the robot's center of gravity to shift to the left leg, causing the robot to tilt forward and place its center of gravity on the left foot

Mogatu uses its left foot as a support and uses a motor to control the movement of its right leg to walk, and then repeats this action in a cycle. IT House has attached a demonstration video, as shown below:
