Nowadays, the adaptability of bipedal robots to different terrains becomes a critical topic because the application environments of robots often are complex, variable, and often unstructured. Examining this adaptability not only reveals the current progress of gait control and perception methods but also highlights key challenges that must be addressed to enable reliable, real-world deployment of bipedal robotic systems. This essay will first introduce the mechanism, types, and controlling methods of bipedal robots then provide numerous popular robots and finally discuss some highly controversial discussions. Overall, after widely searching for different types of newly invented bipedal robots, a significant progress was seen in bipedal robot's adaptability when meeting distinct uneven terrains, which most of the bipedal robots showed strong adaptability to uneven terrains. This conclusion is crucial because it demonstrates the readiness of bipedal robots for real-world environments, where surfaces are often rarely flat or predictable. After improving the advancement of robot's adaptability, a safer and more effective applications in areas such as post-disaster rescue and exploration work.
