Abstract :
It has been difficult to avoid falling over for walking robot with only legs. However, by adding arms, the robot is possible to transit from biped walking to more stable quadruped walking when the robot cannot maintain biped walking. We demonstrate the limit of stable gait and that the robot can maintain locomotion through the transition to stable quadruped walking despite applied external force.
