BirdBot robot is designed according to the legs of birds like Emus and Ostriches. Robot speed is v=0.75m/s, at a leg length of 0.29m (Froude number Fr=v2/gl=0.18) Publication: Badri-Spröwitz, A., Sarvestani, A. A., Sitti, M., & Daley, M. A. (2022). BirdBot achieves energy-efficient gait with minimal control using avian-inspired leg clutching.
