Abstract :
In this paper we have presented how to increase payload performance of the prototype of biped robot EP-WAR2 (Electro-Pneumatic Walking Robot) that was built in Cassino. We have proposed a mechanical design that copies rickshaw´s architecture and operation. A study of feasibility has been carried out and preliminary results are herein presented on mechanical characteristics and operation programming
