Stable biped gaits were achieved by discrete foot placement based on feedback of information availabe at the time of foot placement. The model, developed by Townsend to evaluate the coordinations of torso motions, subsumed most of the salient body members and motions. The modeling yielded a generalized inverted pendulum with a movable support point which physically defines lateral foot placement. Stable gaits were defined by foot placements which are a linear function of the system center of mass position and velocity at the time of foot placement (only). Gaits may be smooth or may have impulsive corrections to adjust the character of the motions and foot placement. Several general algorithms and specific simulations are presented, and calculations for nonimplusive gaits and implusive corrections are presented. The model predictions were compared with published data. The predictions were sufficiently close to the data such that the general algorithms appeared to be validated. Of particular interest were nonsinusoidal character of the motions and the relatively simple algorithms. The simplicity of the algorithms suggested the practical possibility of legged mobile robots. Further investigation seems warranted for determining the parametric variation and control of gait. Some attention is given to continuous-feedback control such as would exist during double-leg support and in specialized tasks such as rope walking or skating.
