Inventors include Babu, Anandan; Polisetty, Mohit Sai; Karthikeyan, Nandhith; Varma, Vegesna Siddhartha; Pramod, Ramakrishna; and Eswarachari, Shashi Kumar Marasandra.

The application for the patent was published on August 07, 2026, under issue no. 32/2026.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides bipedal locomotion evaluation for a bipedal robot (104). A mechanical load interface (102) translates along a rail set (102-2) to modulate a varying torso load (102-4) upon the bipedal robot (104). A camera (106) generates data frames (106-2) from which a processor (110) extracts an observed state vector (110-2) absent a joint-mounted sensor. A control unit (114) computes control instructions (114-2A) by comparing the observed state with a desired state vector (112-2). Unlike conventional testing rigs that rely on internal sensors prone to mechanical inaccuracies, the system (100) utilizes an external vision-based sensing subsystem (106) and a dynamic load emulation module (102) to establish a self-correcting closed-loop feedback architecture that adaptively compensates for structural compliance and stabilizes gait trajectories in real time.
