Re: FRC 71 2002 Marching technique

It works pretty similar to the treads of an elliptical exercise machine.

There is a swing link, a tread link, and a rotoray crank that raises, drives forward, lowers, pulls backwards. It is a very clever walker.

There are a handful other "4-bar" style mechanisms that can produce similar motion profiles.
