Stably Extending Two-Dimensional Bipedal Walking to Three Dimensions [PDF]
, 2007 In this paper we develop a feedback control law that results in stable walking gaits on flat ground for a three-dimensional bipedal robotic walker given stable walking gaits for a two-dimensional bipedal robotic walker.
