“hem in simulation and on hardware. The design shows that the shared transmission lets both joints draw on each other's actuator capacity by easing the knee's peak torque demand under load and the ankle's peak speed demand during fast motion. %Together With the leg's proximal actuator placement, the leg achieves an effective reflected mass of 0.37kg at the foot for a 6kg leg, demonstrating very low distal leg inertia”
