Abstract
Man walks using the Natural vibration of musculoskeletal systems,such as a way of a leg or an arm,and torsion of the body.Passive dynamic walking is what imitated such persons walk,and it performs rhythmical movement which employed the mechanism characteristic efficiently.We produced the test prototype consisting of the waist and two legs by old research,and it realized the passive walk.However,in this test prototype,the flexibility of leg structure,etc.are not similar with people,and the aspects of the walk also differ.Application of the future of a passive walk was considered,people's walk analysis was conducted first,the mechanism of the walk was traced,the test prototype which imitated people's leg structure was produced,and this research aimed at realization of the 2-pair-of-shoes passivity walk near people.
