휴머노이드 로봇은 높은 자유도 때문에 생기는 비선형성 때문에, 안정성을 보장하는 것은 중요한 연구 분야중 하나이다. 또한 안정적인 보행을 하기위해서 미지의 환경하에서 발의 착지는 첫 번째 단계중 하나이다. 그러나, 이족보행 로봇은 반작용 없이 안정적인 발의 착지를 하기 위한 정보를 얻는것이 쉽지 않기 때문에, 착지에 관한 많은 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. 그러므로, 본 논문에서는 퍼지 시스템을 이용한 실시간 착지 제어 방법에 대해 제안하였다. 실시간 착지 제어는 다양한 지면의 조건에서 안정성을 갖고 있어야 하는 제약 조건을 갖는다. 이전까지의 연구에서는 실시간 착지제어에 관한 방법이 매우 전무하고 부가적인 기계적 장비를 (특수한 발의 구조) 필요로 하였다. 그러나, 본 논문에서는 힘 센서만을 사용하여 다양한 환경이 인식될수 있게 하였다. 제안된 방법은 19 자유도를 갖는 휴머노이드 모델을 통해 실험되었다.

In this paper, we propose an optimal trajectory for biped robots to move up-and-down stairs using a genetic algorithm and a computed-torque control for biped robots to be dynamically stable. First, a Real-Coded Genetic Algorithm (RCGA) which of operators are composed of reproduction, crossover and mutation is used to minimize the total energy. Constraints are divided into equalities and inequalities: Equality constraints consist of a position condition at the start and end of a step period and repeatability conditions related to each joint angle and angular velocity. Inequality constraints include collision avoidance conditions of a swing leg at the face and edge of a stair, knee joint conditions with respect to the avoidance of the kinematic singularity, and the zero moment point condition with respect to the stability into the going direction. In order to approximate a gait, each joint angle trajectory is defined as a 4-th order polynomial of which coefficients are chromosomes. The effectiveness of the proposed optimal trajectory is shown in computer simulations with a 6-dof biped robot that consists of seven links in the sagittal plane. The trajectory is more efficient than that generated by the modified GCIPM. And various trajectories generated by the proposed GA method are analyzed in a viewpoint of the consumption energy: walking on even ground, ascending stairs, and descending stairs.

최근 들어 안정적인 보행 패턴 생성을 위해서 많은 방법들이 제안 되고 있다. 대부분의 논문에서 주기적인 보행에 대한 연구는 이루어지고 있으나 첫 보행 구간과 마지막 보행 구간에 대한 분석은 이루어지지 않고 있다. 본 논문은 첫 보행 구간과 마지막 보행 구간에 대한 분석을 통해 기존의 역 진자 모델(Inverted pendulum model)을 기반으로 부드러운 무게 중심의 궤적을 생성하는 해석적 방법을 제안한다. 이를 위해 먼저 정현파 함수를 이용해 영 모멘트 위치(ZMP, Zero Moment Point) 궤적을 설계한다. 영 모멘트 위치 궤적 설계 시 첫 보행 구간과 마지막 보행 구간에 대해 영 모멘트 위치와 무게 중심 간의 비 최소 위상(non-minimum phase) 시스템의 특성을 이용한다. 제안된 방법을 이용하여 주기적인 보행 구간 및 첫 보행 구간과 마지막 보행 구간에서 부드러운 무게 중심 궤적이 생성됨을 시뮬레이션을 통해 구현하여 제안된 방법의 유효성을 보인다.

For stable walking of various biped walking robots(BWR), we need to know the kinematics, dynamics and the Zero Moment of Point(ZMP) which are not easy to analyze analytically. In this reason, we developed a simulation program for BWRs composed of 4 degree-of-freedom upper-part body and 12 degree-of-freedom lower-part of the body. To operate the motion simulator for analyzing the kinematics and dynamics of BWES, inputs for the distance between legs, base angle, choice of walking type, gaits, and walking velocity are necessary. As a result, if stability condition is satisfied by the simulation, angle data for each actuator are generated automatically, and the data are transmitted to BWRS and then, they are actuated by the motion data. Finally, we validate the performance of the proposed motion simulator by applying it to a constructed small sized BWR.

In this paper, an optimal trunk trajectory for stable walking of biped robots is expressed as a simple differential equation, which is then solved by numerical methods. We used ZMP (Zero Moment Point), the virtual total ground reaction point within the region of the supporting food, as the criterion of stability of biped robot walking. If the ZMP is located outside of the stable region in dynamic walking, biped robots fall down. The biped robot considered in this paper consists of two legs and a trunk. The trajectories of the two legs and the ZMP of the biped robot are determined such that they are similar ti those of a human. Based upon those trajectories, the trunk trajectory is solved by numerically integrating differential dynamic equations. Leg motions are controlled by the computed torque control method. The effectiveness of control algorithm as well as the trajectories is confirmed by computer simulations.

We developed a human-sized BWR(biped walking robot) driven by a new actuator based on the ball screw which has high strength and high gear ratio. The robot overcomes the limit of the driving torque of conventional BWRs. Each leg of the robot is composed of three pitch joints and one roll joint. In all, a 10 degree-of-freedom robot with two balancing joints was developed. The BWR was developed to walk autonomously such that it is actuated by small torque motors and is boarded with DC battery and controllers. In the performance test, the BWR performed nice motions of sitting-up and sitting-down. Through the test, we could find capability of high performance in biped-walking.

We developed a human-sized BWR(biped walking robot) named KUBIR1 driven by a new actuator based on the ball screw which has high strength and high gear ratio. KUBIR1 was developed to walk autonomously such that it is actuated by small torque motors and is boarded with DC battery and controllers. To utilize the information on the human walking motion and to analyze the walking mode of robot, a motion capture system was developed. The system is composed of the mechanical and electronic devices to obtain the joint angle data. By using the obtained data, a 3-D graphic interface was developed based on the OpenGL tool. Through the graphic interface, the control input of KUBIR1 is performed.

This paper presents the comparison of FRI(Foot Rotation Indicator) point and ZMP(Zero Moment Point) in biped robot stability. We showed FRI may be employed as a useful tool in stability analysis in biped robot. Also, we proposed the balancing joint trajectory derived from FRI point equation for stable gait. The numerical calculation routines and walking algorithms for simulation are performed by MATLAB. The procedure is composed of the leg trajectory planning, the generation of balancing trajectory, and the verification of dynamic stability.

Each leg of the robot is composed of three pitch joints and one roll joint. In all, a 10 degree-of-freedom robot with two balancing joints was developed. For the purpose of autonomous walking and higher performance, we improved the previous developed BWR. We improved the motor drive efficiency, designed the ball screw actuator in a modular type, and simplified the electric wires. Through this modification, we achieved better performance in walking.

The dynamic walking planning and the inverse dynamics of the biped robot is investigated in this paper. The biped robot is modeled with 14 degrees of freedom rigid bodies considering the walking pattern and kinematic construction of humanoid. The method of the computer aided multibody dynamics is applied to the dynamic analysis. The equations of motion of biped are initially represented as terms of the Cartesian corrdinates then they are converted to the minimum number of equations of motion in terms of the joint coordinates using the velocity transformation matrix. For the consideration of the relationships between the ground and foot the holonomic constraints are added or deleted on the equations of motion. the number of these constraints can be changed by types of walking patterns with three modes. In order for the dynamic walking to be stabilizable optimized trunk positions are iteratively determined by satisfying the system ZMP(Zero Moment Point) and ground conditions.
