I have always been intrigued by robots, especially the kind that attempts to mimic human actions.

This interest led me to try to design and develop a robotic biped that could imitate human walking and running. In this Instructable, I will show you the design and assembly of the robotic biped.

The primary goal while building this project was to make the system as robust as possible such that while experimenting with various walking and running gaits, I wouldn’t have to constantly worry about the hardware failing. This allowed me to push the hardware to its limit. A secondary goal was to make the biped relatively low-cost using readily available hobby parts and 3D printing leaving room for further upgrades and expansions. These two goals combined provide a robust foundation to perform various experiments, letting one develop the biped to more specific requirements.
