In this paper, force control for a multi-legged walking robot is investigated. For stable but relatively rapid walking, a simple force control algorithm is proposed in conjunction with the position control system. The proposed control method is tested on an experimental one leg system of two degree of freedom with a force controller using a position controller and a monoboard microcomputer to implement the proposed control algorithm. The experimental results shows that the control algorithm can be applied for walking in a terrain with wide range variation.

To provide systematic design procedure, the relation between PI gain of velocity controller and sampling rate is analyzed with the ISE performance index and the time responses. The position controller for one-leg, 3-axis, was developed under consideration of compactness and expendability. And several experiments were performed.

영상카메라와 무선통신 기능을 탑재한 손모양 및 장애물 인식이 가능한 다족 로봇을 독자적으로 설계 및 제작하고 제작한 로봇에 최적화된 보행패턴 알고리즘을 개발하여 적용하였다. 영상센서의 입력화상에 대해 하프변환 (Hough Transform)을 사용하여 물체의 외곽선을 추출하여 장애물을 인식하여 회피하는 실시간 자율보행이 가능한 알고리즘을 개발하였다. 로봇의 목표물 및 목적지 설정을 위하여 미리 학습시킨 피부색의 평균값과 입력영상의 확률거리(Mahalanobis Distance)를 산출하여 손 영역을 검출하고 손가락 개수에 따라 로봇의 명령 제어가 가능하도록 하였다. 장애물 및 손모양 인식에 따른 다족 자율 보행 로봇의 수행 실험 평균 결과 약 96%의 장애물 인식률과 94%의 손 모양 인식률을 보였다.

The force distribution in multi-legged robots is a constrained, optimization problem. The solution to the problem is the set points of the leg contact forces for a particular system task. In this paper, an efficient and general formulation of the force distribution problem is developed using linear programming. The considered walking robot is a quadruped robot with a locked-joint failure, i.e., a joint of the failed leg is locked at a known place. For overcoming the drawback of marginal stability in fault-tolerant gaits, we define safety margin on friction constraints as the objective function to be maximized. Dynamic features of locked-joint failure are represented by equality and inequality constraints of linear programming. Unlike the former study, our result can be applied to various forms of walking such as crab and turning gaits. Simulation results show the validity of the proposed scheme.

In this paper, the multi-leg robot is designed using Teo Jansen mechanism. The purpose of this paper is to develop unique robot, which operates efficiently in any environment. In that case, speed and accuracy are required. The indication which evaluate the value is Ground Score according to the Jansen's mechanism. To optimize the Ground Score. Genetic Algorithm (GA) in MATLAB Toolbox is used, which is numerical analytic algorithm to quickly convergence into optimum point. The Optimization of value is visualized by M-Sketch. M-Sketch was useful for simulation and evaluation of mechanic's dynamic motion. The robot's draft is produced into finished product by Edison Designer.

In this paper, we present the concept and main mission of the Crabster, an underwater walking robot. The main focus is on the modeling of drag and lift forces on the legs of the robot, which comprise the main difference in dynamic characteristics between on-land and underwater robots. Drag and lift forces acting on the underwater link are described as a function of the relative velocity of the link with respect to the fluid using the strip theory. Using the translational velocity of the link as the rotational velocity of the joint, we describe the drag force as a function of joint variables. Generalized drag torque is successfully derived from the drag force as a function of generalized variables and its first derivative, even though the arm has a roll joint and twist angles between the joints. To verify the proposed model, we conducted drag torque simulations using a simple Selective Compliant Articulated Robot Arm.

A fault-tolerant gait of multi-legged robots with static walking is a gait which can maintain gait stability and continue its walking against an occurrence of a leg failure. This paper proposes fault-tolerant gait planning of a quadruped robot walking over a rough planar terrain. The considered fault is a locked joint failure, which prevents a joint of a leg from moving and makes it locked in a known position. In this Paper, two-phase discontinuous gaits are presented as a new fault-tolerant gait for quadruped robots suffering from a locked joint failure. By comparing with previously developed one-phase discontinuous gaits, it is shown that the proposed gait has great advantages in gait performance such as the stride length and terrain adaptability. Based on the two-phase discontinuous gait, quasi follow-the-leader(FTL) gaits are constructed which enable a quadruped robot to traverse two-dimensional rough terrain after an occurrence of a locked joint failure. During walking, two front legs undergo the foot adjustment procedure for avoiding stepping on forbidden areas. The Proposed wait planning is verified by using computer graphics simulations.

In this paper, we propose a new learning control scheme for various walk motion control of biped robot with same learning-base by neural network. We show that learning control algorithm based on the neural network is significantly more attractive intelligent controller design than previous traditional forms of control systems. A multi layer back propagation neural network identification is simulated to obtain a dynamic model of biped robot. Once the neural network has learned, the other neural network control is designed for various trajectory tracking control with same learning-base. The biped robots have been received increased attention due to several properties such as its human like mobility and the high-order dynamic equation. These properties enable the biped robots to perform the dangerous works instead of human beings. Thus, the stable walking control of the biped robots is a fundamentally hot issue and has been studied by many researchers. However, legged locomotion, it is difficult to control the biped robots. Besides, unlike the robot manipulator, the biped robot has an uncontrollable degree of freedom playing a dominant role for the stability of their locomotion in the biped robot dynamics. From the simulation and experiments the reliability of iterative learning control was illustrated.
