Abstract
In this study we discuss two-segment leg´s parameters, torsional stiffness, knee angle, and link ratio, for a biologically inspired terrestrial robot with four legs. Each leg has two-segment links and a passive joint. Simulation results then verify soft leg´s effectiveness compared to a robot with stiff legs.
