Coupled joints for torque sharing between actuators
Use of bearing to reduce loads on motor shaft
Mechanical constraint on orientation of legs
Increased foot area for stability
Leg brackets provide increased work area of legs
The Torso Design Analysis and Testing
Features of the torso design:
Provides housing for Intel NUC, IMU, SSD and batteries
Has extensive slotting to reduce weight
As we can see from the CAD analysis of torso,distortion in the normal direction has a maximum value of 6.15e-004 mm(negligible).Therefore,it is a stable and robust design.
