Bionics shape design of lower limbs mechanism is an important aspect of the design of humanoid robot and rehabilitation prosthes. Based on the measurement of the gait properties and the analysis of the structure shape of human lower limbs, a bionics shape design of lower limbs mechanism is presented. In the research project, the bionics shape design combined the outline design and parts shape design using the similarity principle. The methods have significant theoretical and practical values to the study of humanoid robot design and experiment study.
