Abstract
In this paper we have investigated the possibility of using parallel manipulator architectures for leg design in legged walking robots as inspired from the leg human muscular system. Proposed kinematic designs are presented with their basic features and performance with the aim to identify a solution with cost-oriented user-friendly characteristics as a leg module for biped robots but also for multi-legged walking machines.
