2DOF leg, Simple Single Fulcrum.
This leg design is quite elegant in its simplicity. It's design was first seen on the MIT Genghis hexapod. |
Assembly Guide |
|
|
|
 |
2DOF leg, Direct-Drive Parallelogram. (Image only.)
This leg design keeps the Tibia (knee to foot) at a constant angle. The angle can be adjusted by varying the length of a "dog bone" in the construction. Different lengths of tubing can be used. |

 |
2DOF leg, Indirect Drive Parallel (Mechanical advantage).
This leg design can hold a great amount of weight, but the tripod has to start and stop in the down position in the gait to be effective. It doesn't allow a variable ride height. |
