N2 - This paper aims at the design of a humanoid robot foot including the shape and the passive compliance mechanism. First, by analyzing the structure of human foot, we propose the design of foot shape including of the sole and the base line (the contact line between the foot and the ground in the side view). Then, we present a passive compliance mechanism analogous to human's plantar arch. Finally, some simulation examples are provided to illustrate the effectiveness of our proposed method.
