  • Abstract
    Traction estimation and control, common in the automotive industry, have yet to be extended to human bipedal motion. This paper presents a novel metric for slip and traction optimization using the partial derivative of a traction force estimate to slip velocity. The metric is verified computationally using an existing dynamic mode and experimentally using a multi-camera motion capture system.
