Abstract
This paper describes the mechanism of biped locomotor, WL-16 (Waseda Leg No. 16), its compliance control method and experiments carrying a human. This robot is developed based on WL-15´s basic design using new gimbals´ mechanisms with small backlash and new linear actuators dealing with a heavy payload and a wide movable range. Walking experiments carrying a human are successfully completed and the effectiveness of WL-16´s mechanism and control method are confirmed.
