  • The AK80-64 KV80 served as the external high-torque drive for the prototype's variable-stiffness actuator.
  • The prototype adjusted stiffness across a 30-450 N m/rad range and tracked knee-stiffness changes at walking speeds of 1.0-1.5 m/s.
  • Khalifa University's paper describes the mechanical design and experimental validation, while CubeMars identifies the exact actuator as the AK80-64 KV80.
