From geometrical analysis, we found that stability under a wide range of slope inclinations will be achieved by limiting swing legs spatially in a certain angle. We also found that the limiting leg's angles, we call constraint mechanisms, are achieved by a certain type of a 3D sole shape, which provides stability in a compact size. We show the turning motion for a passive dynamic biped walker with constrained mechanisms.}, pages = {2804--2806}, publisher = {SICE}, title = {Turning Motion by Control Constraint Mechanism of Passive Dynamic Walking}, year = {2010} }
