N2 - A vertical control algorithm is proposed for a onelegged hopping machine. It differs from previous control algorithms in three areas: (i) it uses a nearinverse of the machine's dynamics; (ii) it uses discretetime output feedback, namely the hopping heights of previous cycles (rather than continuous full state feedback); and (iii) it employs a more realistic model of the hopping machine mechanical components. Numerical simulations are used to assess the ability of the controlled machine's to track a piecewise constant height trajectory. Specifically, we study the sensitivity of the design to deviations in the hopping machine's parameters.
