Mechanism Monday: Simulate before you step out

Let's take a step ahead in design and validate the motion of any mechanism before spending money on physical prototyping or doing further analysis.

Here is an example of simulation of a Jansen's linkage

​​​​​​​​​​​​​​ Jansen's linkage is a planar leg mechanism designed by the kinetic sculptor Theo Jansen to generate a smooth walking motion.
