Summary: "This book details various techniques for carrying out gait modeling and walking pattern synthesis and for the control of bipedal robots. General analytical information on human walking is provided, along with a review of current experimental bipedal robots and of the possible applications of walking bipeds. Different methods for generating viable walking patterns are considered, such as passive walking and gait synthesis performed using optimization techniques." "Control based on robot modeling, neural network methods or intuitive approaches are also covered. The unilaterality of contact is
