Zusammenfassung:	Techniques for braking a joint include a system having a first link, a second link, a joint connecting the first link and the second link, and a dual brake assembly. The dual brake assembly includes a first brake and a second brake. Braking the dual brake assembly reduces relative motion between the first and second links. The first brake provides a first brake holding strength when engaged, the second brake provides a second brake holding strength when engaged, and the second brake holding strength is different from the first brake holding strength. When the dual brake assembly is unpowered, the first brake is automatically engaged and the second brake is automatically disengaged.
