Abstract

Disclosed are robotic systems, methods, bipedal robot devices, and computer-readable mediums. For example, a robotic system may include a robotic body having an axis; a sensor connected to the robotic body, where the sensor is configured to receive information within a scanning area; two or more robotic legs connected to the robotic body, where the two or more robotic legs are configured to operate in a starting position and a use position, where in the starting position the robotic system is substantially stationary; and one or more protrusions connected to the robotic body, where the one or more protrusions extend from the robotic body at a non-perpendicular angle from the axis of the robotic body and are located outside of the scanning area of the sensor, and where in the starting position the one or more protrusions are configured to support the robotic system.
