Fall Recovery

The capability of a robot to autonomously recover from a fallen position (lying on the ground) to a standing configuration. Fall recovery is critical for bipedal and quadrupedal robots operating in real environments where falls are inevitable. Recovery strategies include lying-to-sitting, sitting-to-kneeling, and kneeling-to-standing posture sequences.
