    Abstract

    We examine the control problem of curve-tracking for fully-actuated mechanical systems, applied to walking robots. First, we discuss earlier results on curve-tracking using a change of coordinates to split the kinetic energy in a desired and an undesired part. Then, we apply and extend these results to the case of a compass-gait biped, and show in a simulation how its robustness against surface height variations can be increased.
