The fundamental objective of robotics is to enhance the productivity of humans while interacting in potentially unstructured environments. In this sense, Human-

This book aims at providing algorithms for balance control of legged, torque-controlled humanoid robots. A humanoid robot normally uses the feet for locomotion.

Methods by which robots can learn control laws that enable real-time reactivity using dynamical systems; with applications and exercises. This book presents a w

Humanoid Robotics provides a comprehensive compilation of developments in the conceptualization, design and development of humanoid robots and related technolog

A major obstacle that prevents humanoid robots from accomplishing real world tasks is their inability to physically interact with, and effectively manipulate, t
