Abstract
Biped Bike is a new tool for transportation. It has a bird-like gait which is controlled by a rider in real-time using accelerator and brake pedals, steering wheel, etc. The authors discuss a variable walking speed control technique based on the virtual inverted pendulum method, and computer simulations of the second prototype machine
