A robot includes four compliant, laminated fiberglass-composite legs that enable tuning passive parallel and series compliance of each leg. The legs of the robot are impactful on the performance of its locomotion for gaits like pronking and trotting, demonstrating the robot's potential for tuning and optimizing leg stiffness for niche and specialized applications.
