The Terrain Robotics Advanced Control and Experimentation (TRACE) Lab at the University of Massachusetts Lowell (UML) focuses on modeling, analysis, and control of robot locomotion, especially legged robot locomotion. Our research goal is to achieve versatile, stable, agile, and energy-efficient robot locomotion in unknown complex environments. We are also interested in applying our robotics knowledge and skills to revealing the fundamental principles of human and animal locomotion biomechanics as well as investigating robot-assisted human walking.
