Abstract

This application relates to a leg assembly and device for a robot. The leg assembly includes: a connection assembly and a sole assembly; the connection assembly is configured to connect the leg assembly and a robot body. The sole assembly includes a sole plate, a first force sensor, a distance sensor, and an attitude sensor. The connection assembly includes a second force sensor and a shank connector. The first force sensor is configured to detect a normal reaction force suffered by the sole plate after being in contact with an obstacle; the second force sensor is configured to detect a resultant force of reaction forces suffered by the sole plate after being in contact with the obstacle.
