Аннотация

The aim of this paper is to present the effect of a chosen gait algorithm on the forward speed of the robot and on the joint load values. To this end a motion simulation study was carried out using Solidworks software package, comprising kinematic and dynamic analyses. It also presents the forward and reverse kinematics solutions for the insect-like walking robot leg.
