About

Michail Drobotenko is a robotics researcher at Kuban State University, specializing in the design and control of self-stabilizing walking robots. His major contributions center on the development of the AnyWalker platform, a non-anthropomorphic bipedal robot engineered to overcome obstacles larger than itself through innovative chassis design and internal degrees of freedom that compensate for deflections. Drobotenko’s work addresses the critical challenge of center-of-mass self-stabilization, enabling high cross-country capability and dynamic balance without external support. His most cited paper, “Control and Stability Evaluation of the Bipedal Walking Robot AnyWalker” (2018, 8 citations), demonstrates the robot’s ability to navigate rugged terrain, while his earlier “Design and Control of Self-Stabilizing Angular Robotics Anywalker” (2017, 5 citations) establishes the theoretical framework for angular stabilization. In “Development of robotic mobile platform with the universal chassis system” (2018, 4 citations), he extends stabilization principles to broader mobile robotics, drawing parallels with aircraft and ship stabilization. Though his citation counts are modest, Drobotenko’s practical, lab-tested prototypes represent a tangible step toward robust, obstacle-adaptive locomotion, making his research valuable for students and engineers exploring legged robotics and mechatronic system integration.
